To John ". Munger O. Son, agents of the Ne,o
England Mutual Life ms. Co., Boston:
desire, in behalf of the widow and children
of VIM. Thompson, deceased, to tender their
grateful Acknowledgements to you and the New
England Mutual Life Insurance Co. of Boston
for the prompt payment of the amount due on
$4,000 policy issued on the life of William
Thompson August %, 1868. On this policy
one premium only was paid; the second be-
came due Aug. 25, 1869, and was not paid at
the time of the death of Mr.. Thompson, to witt
May 81, 1870, which was over nine months
after the policy lapsed. IF Mr.. Thompson had
procured a similar policy on his life in any
company not incorporated by the laws Of Mas
sachusets his family would not have received
farthng, because the premium was not paid
aud the policy would have lapsed without rem
edy. Persons desiring life policies will find it
for their interest to patronize the agency of
Messrs. J. w. Munger & Son, who will place
their risks in the New England Life Insurance
Co. OF Boston. A. b. HOLDEN,

son.

A NEWSPAPER EoAx-Monday forenoon
gentlsmanly appearing person came into cur
office and gave US an account of an accident
which be said occurred on the o clock ex-
press train, Saturday evening, from this city
to Boston, and by which a young man named
Charles G. Taylor, of Norridgewock, was 50
badly injured by falling from the cars between
here and Oak Hill station, that he survived but
an hour.
Onr Informant, who gave his name as s. s.
Cummings, No. Ill Hanover street, Boston,
was very particular in relating the affair, and
said he was brother-in-law of the deceased.
AS he was leaving the office we inquired wheth-
er coroner's inquest had bcen held, aud were
told that there had not Knowing that tho
statutes required such an inquest to be held in
every fatal railroad accident case in this State,
We were led to make inquiries relating to the
accident at the depot in this city, and were as
sured that it was all false, that no such occur
renee had taken place. Mr.. Chase, the Super
intendent. aid the baggage master of the train
mentioned, subsequent ly confirmed our i'm
pressions that the pretended accident was a
noax.
With this Information we declined publish
ins the Statement furnished us by Mr.. Cum
mings. What his motive was in endeavoring
to palm off such story upon the public we
know not. But this we know, that he is de-
serving of the contemptof the community for
his outrageous conduct.
The Argus by some means obtained informal
ton Of the alleged accident, and not only pub
Aished in their columns, but furnished it to the
Associated Press Agent, to be teegraphed to
the Associated Press newspapers.
