WE have been panied to learn that our
old and esteemed friend, J. N. Fletcher, of
Polk township, says the Crawford County
Forum, was run oyer on Tuesday by two,
wheels of 4 heavy wagon, which resulted
in bursting his bladder, and many otherinsa
juriess His sufferings were intense, to such
a degree that reason was often dethroned.
His physician says he can not possibly sur
vive.
FATHER MCSwEENY, Catholic priest,
and Eugene Callahan, in undertaking to
pass John j. Bell, Miss Extra Eckman and
Miss Allie Bush, who were buggy riding,
on Thursday evening, on the Cincinnati
avenue, in Greenfield, were thrown from
the vehicle and both severely injured.
Father McSweeny's right leg was broken
in four places and his face badly bruised.
He has charge of, number of Catholic
churches in Southern Ohio.
ONE night last week, boy named Null
nix dreamed dream, which was probably
a continuation of his waking thoughts.
He imagined that he was standing by a
clear cold stream, whose waters invited
him to bathe in their delicious embraces.
Entranced by the prospect he plunged in,
and sawoke to find himself-sprawling at
full length upon the ground! He had dived
from a second story window, and, instead
of sinking into the murmuring brook, he
found himself on the hard dusty road. No
injuries were sustained, but it was most
cruel awakening, says the Barnesuile In
telligencer.
A NEGRO named Paris Woods. who lives
in ChillicOthe, says the Circleuiile Democrat,
had BEEN employed as cook at the Picka-
way House for some time past. During
last winter a poor, ignorant, illiterate
white girl was employed at the same house
in the capacity of dish-washer, and
the negro, through his pretenses of being
her best friend, &C., succeeded in accom-
plishing his hellish MISREPRESENTATION On
Monday last the girl procured warrant
for his arrest, but afterwards learned that
he had fed. He was found and arrested in
Chillicothe, brought here on Monday
night, and on Tuesday was brought before
Esquire Martin. The matter was compro-
missed by Woods securing $500 to be paid to
the girl, and by payment of costs. This
negro has wife and nine children, and
several grandchildren. This is the first
and only case we have ever recorded where
a negro had seduced a white girl in this
county, and hope for the good name of our
city, that we may never again be called
upon to record matter so outrageous and
diaboiical in its character. = +
