At the inquest held in Greenwich, Tuesday,
ON the body of George Reynolds, the brake
man on the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad, who was killed near that place
last Friday, another brakeman named Brun-
diQe testified that he saw Reynolds and the
conductor coming out of a saloen at STAN
ford before the train started. Another brake
man, named Delaney, testified that Reynolds
was SO drunk as to need assistance to get on
the train. The conductor testified that he
saw Reynolds in a saloon and that he took
glass of beer himself. The verdict rendered
found tibet Brakeman Delaney was blame
worthy for not having informed the condnc-
tor of Reynolds condition, and that the con-
ductor, who saw Reynolds in saloon in
Stamford should have prevented him from
occupying his position as brakeman.
