James Erwin, presiding elder of the Ithaca
VI. K. district, and Rev. Il. A. Perk, pas.
tor ofthe Sheldrake Nj. L. Church, on Fri

feet high, aud escaped almost unhurt. Ii
occurred on the vest shore of Cayuga lake,
short distance below Sheldrake village.
They bad driven-fn buggy to visit FAM
lily residing there, and when about to lesve
undertook to turn around at narrow point
in the road, when tho horse became un-
manageable aud ran of perpendicular
bank over Hfty feet high into the lake. The
carriage top caught in the trees, which part
ly broke the force of the fall, but it was
smashed to pieces. Mr.. Erwin was, of
course, thrown out, but was caught in the
brush, and received no serious injuries, be.
sides being saved disagreeable wetting By
going into the lake. Mr.. Perk had an in
voluntary immersion, and escaped with on.
ly slight injuries. The horse was taken
OUT, and, although pretty badly hurt, was
able TO walk to stable near by. The
precipice is very dangerous one, aud the
citizens Of that vicinity say that at differ.
ent times cattle have been known to fall over

SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC IN CONNECTICUT.
The smallpox epidemic in Connecticut
seems to be pretty serious affair. The
seleetmen report forty cases at South Wind
ham, three at Windham Centre, and one
at Willimantic. Every shop, store aud
school at South Windham is closed. That
village is rather a bad place for the disease
since it is the junction of two railroads
the New London Northern and the Hart.
ford and Providence. The people in all
the neighboring towns are very much a.
Harmed. The origin of the epidemic is
thus explained: A child was brought from
Mystic with the disease, a consultation of
doctors was called without its discovery +;
the child died, and a public fuueral was
held and largely attended. The doctor
first called is reported to have taken the
disease and died.
