said was too old to draw freight to and
from Roxbury, and that he was both old
enough and well enough off to stop etc.,
ETC., met with quite an accident when re.
turning home last Thursday. AS he was
crossing the railroad track he stood in
his wagon watching a moving train at
the uepot when Il train coming from
the other way struck his wagon and
completely demolished it,pilng his horses
in the brook near by, and the old gentle
man lit on the passing engine. After
running some little way they stopped an(
let him off, Some thought it was because
he did not have comfortable seat, anC
others say he had no ticket; at all events
the old gentleman left the train with ,
cash in the back of his head, and is Jared
and bruised some, but is now on the
gain, and is out looking for more freight
to haul; and if that be so he no doubt
will be better patronized than ever before
Leaving his team and taking steam power
will greatly help him.
