REMARKABLE EsCArE--One day last
week, as an excursion train containing
1000 persons was nearing the crossing
OF the Camden and Atlantic and Cam
den and Amboy railroads, at Camden.
the tiag-man signalled that all wis lig II.
and the heavily loaded train kept ON.
When 1t was near the crossing special
train on the Amboy road came in SIGHT
around 4 curve, approaching at high
speed. The tlag-man instantly displayed
the red flag, but neither train could stop.
Most fortunately, one of the brakemcn on
the excursion tram lad the remarkable
presence of mind TO cut the train and nut
the brakes down on the cars cut off,
which 50 slowed them that gap in the
train WAS formed just ut the crossing.
and the Amboy train dashed through.
and no injury was done. But for this.
the loss OF life and mangling of bodies
that must have occurred would have been
fearful beyond description. That brake
man certainly deserves a handsome re-
ward for his presence of mind and prompt
and efficient action.
