whea the young mans knee came in con-
tact with the end Of 8 rail in the fence

For some days after the terribls
railroad slaughter at Angola, On the Lake
Shore RSilroad, it was feared the Rev.
Edward Burnhsm, of Newburryport,
Mass, who recently conducted the servi-

had been received from him by his friends
up to last Saturday, it was thoughthis was
one of those bodies 90 entirely destroyed
IS to leave no hope Of Identification. On
Monday we learned the gratifying news
aad been received by his friends here, that
he was safe at home-haVing been delayed

Dr.. Woodwork was called to dress the
wound, and the man was doing well-with
4 fair prospect Of saving his foot. LeAv
