THRILLING SCENE.

The Troy CaIamity-A Mother and Child
Drowned i'm the Presence of Men Unable 10
Save Them.
We have briefly announced the terrible calamity
which occurred to the canal boat nj. G. Weatherbee,
at the Fort Miller Dam, on Wednesday last, by which
the wife and child Of Captain Clark, the commander
OF the craft, were drowned The particulars OF the
affair possess thrilling interest 1t appears that the
Weatherbee, which was loaded with coal, was on the
point OF crossing the river at the bridge and Captain
Clark with two hands, had stepped ashore with a
rope to keep the stern OF the boat near the
dock leaving no board except Mrs.
Clark and her young child about eighteen months
old. As the boat approached the break in the dam,
out into the stream and got beyond the control Of
the captain and his men, as their ropes were too
short to fasen to the snubbing posts The captains
wife made every possible effort to give out more
line, but owing to eXcitemenb, failed OF success.
They then tried TO hold the boat with the towing
ing the horses into the river. AS the boat came
into the break Mrs Clark took her child in her
arms, and cried "Save mel" ASave me-"
'Save mel" At this time fifty or more men
her TO stick to the boat, and others to sit
down. The lock-tender, Martin Freeman, in a
truly brave spirit, started for her in small rowboat
When he came near Mrs. Clark, hugglng her child
TO her Breast jumped for the boat but failed to reach
it. Freeman sprang for her, but without success.
The canal boat then went over the dam followed by
the small boat. Freeman saw Mrs Clark but once
after he went over the DAM His boat was Capsized,
and he got top, and went over the second falls.
He was several times thrown from the boat, the
water striking him with such force in the face that
the blood gushed from his nostrils He drfted down
the river half a mile and was rescued alive by some
men ON the opposite shore. Captain Clark tainted
and fell as his wife went over the dam. 1t is be-
eved that his wife would have been saved II she had
remained in the boat, az it lodged a short distance
below the dam.-TrOV IN W Times.
