Cecilien Esneault, Esq, one of the ju-
nior proprietors of Picayune saw mill,
met with an accident at the mill, one
day last week, that came very near end
ing his earthly career. A rope fastened
around log that was being drawn up
from the river bank slipped its hold, and
the block and tackle attached to the end
of the rope struck Mr.. Esneau(t on the
shoulder and side of the head, knocking
him into tho river. Fortunately his ia
ther was close at hand and pulled the
young man out Of the water. The blow
had knocked him senseless, and he re-
NAMED unconscious about ten minutes,
but under the ministrations Of DR.. Van
desritf he was soon on the high road to
recovery, and is now at work again, none
the worse for wear. We congratulate
Cecilien upon his lucky escape from more
serious consequences.
