Horrible Death of an Augusta M

Horrible Death or an AuguSta Mall
The Kennebec journal says that little more

Young freshman named John Morrisy, came to
Augusta from Wiscasset, and was employed in
the steam saw mill on the east side. After
wards he went to Gardiner, and from there to
Canton where he was employed in Dennison's
pulp mill. On Saturday, November 4th, the
poor fellow met with most tragic death, the
CHASTITY particulars of which are given with
minute fidelity by correspondent of the Lew
iston Gazette. He says: "About half past five

John Morrisy's fell into the strongest liquor

that virulent, caustic liquid, made of soda
ASH lime and boiling water, is used to boil
wood in to dissolve pulp. Draw rag through
this and then scrape it across board, and the
rag will tear, being rotted completely. When
we got to the mill the poor wretch was laid
down on heap of lime, drawing up his feet
convulsively and shrieking, My God my Godp
The men were standing around helplessly, or
rushing aimlessly hither and thither. The
captain told them to drag his clothes off; as
they did the skin and hair came off with them
Then we went to the Office and telephoned to
Canton for physician. They put the man on
a mattress, rolled him in blankets and carried
him to the house. / hope Til never see any
thing again like what followed. He did not
suffer intense pain, because the acid had kill
ed the nerves; he was blind, and the liquor
swallowed was burning his throat and eating
through him. The doctor was at the house
as soon as the body. They laid him on bed;
he was perfectly conscious, and knew he could
not live He was Catholic, and called for
priest, but none was within reach. "Then
God have mercy upon my soul; Jesus have
pity upon me, )" he cried, SO heart brokenly that
the great men around felt like fainting. The
women cried and screamed with anguish and
sorrow. When they stripped him the caustic
swallowed had buSped through, and over his
heart was a black patch, heart-shaped, and on
other parts Of his body blue-black spots. It
was useless to try restoratives They could
only let him die as easily as possible; large
doses sof morpine deadened feeling, and in
about five hours he lost consciousness at IL he
died-a hideous sight, burned and shriveled.

to stop; and probably, giving careless push

as he fell brought men running who instantly
plunged their arms in and dragged him out

The Lafayette Tree Out Down.

The Lafayette tree, which stood in front OF
City Hall on Congress street near the corner OF
Myrtle street, was cut down yesterday by order
of the mayor. For many years the tree has
been patched and painted, but the rot has now
conquered it. When the workmen removed
the bark yesterday morning. it was found that
the entire trunk was decayed, and had become
spongy throughout. There was no longer any
doubt as to the danger of letting 1t stand and
orders were at once given 20 remove it. The
men beean at the top and cut off the branches,
one Of a time until the whole tree lay on the
sidewalk. Many people took away portions of
it as relics.
The history of this old elm tree is interest
ing. The Marquis de Lafayette came to Port
land on the 18th of June. 1926. A public re-
ception was rendered to him and was held un-
der the branches of this tree. An awning was
spread from the cornice of the old State house,
to this tree and another one above, which fell
in the fire of 1866. The inhabitants of Port
distinguished Frenchman. Lafayette stood
under this tree and shook hands with whoever
saw fit to present himself. This was the only
tree within the burned district OF 1866, which
survived the fire. 1t marks the eastern limit
where it was possible for any green thing to live
The age of the tree is matter Of doubt but
probably it is somewhere about eighty or nine
ty years old. Many are sorry to see it fellee,
but standing where it did it could not have
been braced up with iron rods, os suggested,
without obstructing the sidewalk and disfgur-
ing the front of the city building.
1t is now proposed that the committee hav-
ing the matter in charge replace the tree, not
with a mere sapling, but a good sized tree,
which can be transplanted with sufficient sub
soil to enable it to live and flourish. Ii the ap-
priation will not permit let a subscription pa
per be passed round land then, when the money
is subscribed, have the tree planted with APP
propriate ceremonies. call it the Garfield Tree,
and let it be in perpetuation of an event that
will always live in the American history: or
let the new tree be called the Lafayette tree
as the old one was.
