Accident at ROckland.

Rockland, June 20. A severe accident &C.
cured during the out door concert at Thorn
aston, Monday evening, by the collision of
two teams from Rockland. Mr.. Reuben
Winslow, accompanied by a lady, was driv
ing rapidly towards Roekland, two either
teams being just in advance of him, when he
saw another team, driven by young man
named Sawyer, coming rapidly towards him,
and he checked his horse, drawing up to-
wards the right side of the road
In passing between the carriages in adj
vance of Winslow, Sawyer's team was crowd
ed toward the side of the street, and came in
collision with Winslow's, one of the shafts
of the carriage striking the horse of the lat
ter in the breast and infiicting an ugly, and
perhaps fatal wound. Sawyer was accom-
panied by two young ladies, and as soon as
the collision occurred his horse turned and
ran in the opposite direction, upsetting the
carriage and throwing out its occupants, in
juring them all more or less severely.
One Of the young ladies, Miss Annie Har-
rington, had her wrist fractured, the other,
Miss Lizzie Marsh, was considerably bruised,
