theriver in skift to go TO the coal shat

the tramway at the Top Mill, the ferry
boat was just leaving the shore. The
current being very swift at this point, the

the way of the boat, which run them
down. Three Of them succeeded in
getting hold Of the side OF the
ferry boat, and were helped on
board. The fourth, Thos. Mclaughlin
was not so fortunate. He was
seen to rise to the surface some distance
away, when one Of his lafe comrades
bravely jumped into the water and res.
cued him. Mclaughlin was taken on
shore to house near the Top Mill, in an
exhausted condition. DR.. Martin was
summoned and attended to tho half.
