An inquest was held this morning on

injuries received by being thrown oyek

Mr.. Kleinberg, the father OF the dc,

thirty-fve to go to a wedding at Blue
Rock. He was notified Sunday of the
accident. He went out Monday and Wis
tied the place, and he was of the opinion
that the driver, had he been sober, could
have avoided the accident. lie knew
nothing of the case from his own knowk
edge.
DR.. Chas. Muscroft, jr., stated that be
attended to some of the persons who
were hurt. He found scalp wound on
the deceased.
She was perfectly conscious. He did
not think at the time that her iDjurieR
were dangerous. DR.. Moore af terWardf
took charge of her. He also stated thas
the grade to the bridge was very stsep
and that it would be very difficult e
in daytime (the accident occurred dur
ing Il dark rainy night).
Henry Bramlage, a young man who
was with the wedding party, and was
also injured, testified that the driver
appeared to be druns - the time. There
were two lights on ti| wagon, one OF
which was dark lar n;'~n. The driver,
in my opinion, did NJ, have his brakes
on when he went down. the grade. Ha
was able to see the pike. The of wheel
Of the wagon then struck the bridge; one
OF the horses went over the railing. A
single-tree broke and the other h0rsek
escaped. We knew nothing more, ex-
cept that we found ourselves in the
creek. The witness did not see the
driver, MIR. Beckman, drink any thing on
the route.
John Regan, Boss driver, stated thai
Beckman is man OF steady habits, ana
that he is skillful driver and undeti
stands his business thoroughly. ~ hayp
been in the driving business all my life,
and think that it was an exceedingly
difficult thing to manage fOur-hoTSo
team going down such a grade. La my
opinion the accident could not be
avoided"
John Bramlage was setting next to thu
driver. He says that at Cumminsyiiin
the tongue OF the wagon struck q stump
and broke. He did not see the stump.
The driver did not take any drink on the
road. We got to the scene OF the aecl-
dent about 3 o'clock Sunday morning. 1
put on the brake, and Beckman pulled
in the horses tightly. 1t was dark and
we could not see we'll. The accident
then occurred.
Otner testimony was taken, but it was
Of the same nature as the above and
elicited nothing OF further interest.
The jury rendered a verdict That the
deceased came to his death by being
over bridge, and exoa-
crate the driver from any blame.
