JOIN WELTY, huckster, running to the
Wheeling market from Rock Hill, came near
meeting with fatal accident on Saturday
last, as he was coming up big HILL on his
return from market. Arriving with his load
ed wagon above the Coal Bank, a short dis
tance, he stopped at breaker to adjust some
things in the back part of the wagon; he drew
the lever to lock his wagon, and secured it in
the usual method, and wrapped the lines
around the lever bar, and then proceeded to
the rear of the wagon. By some means the
lever-bar was loosened, and the lines were
which had The effect of causing the
horses to back Before Mr. Welty could
reach the lines the horses and wagon had
started down the steep bank, and wagon,
horses and man were capsized. Very soon
after the accident Boyd Cameron, Mr.. Gran
gle, and some other parties who were passing
along the road discovered the situation, and
were quick in their endeavors to relieve Mr..
Welty, who was lying upon his face with the
entire weight of the wagon and one of the
horses upon his back. With some difficulty
he was extricated in serseless condition.
DIR. John E. West. was called Immediately,
and the injured man was able to return to his
home Oh Sunday. The wagon was literally
demolished.t but the horses are yet able to
travel. ilE .- .ss a..

cluded to take tepid bath. He worked and
washed, till he had concluded within. himself
that he was the cleanest, if not thesbest look

the finishing touches with rough hand towel,
standing with his back to the heated stove.
when all at once, to his utter discomfort, he
made a step backward, and found himself un-
