A Big Oak Tres-Narrow Escape

large oak tree fell across the Housatonic railroad track recently just before the New Milford special train due and just after freight train had passed. The tree was large one, more than one hundred feet in height and nearly two feet in diameter, with the trunk of uniform size for forty or fifty feet. Mir. James H. Mead, an ice man, ran and stopped the train. An axe was procured from the train, the top cut from the tree and rolled down the bank. The top of the trunk was then attached to the engine and drawn around of the track. The train ar rived in Bridgeport about half an hour late. This tree had been left standing from for est which had heen cut off two years ago, and it is supposed that the winds and storms had splintered the trunk, weakening it tlll it fell by it's own weight, as no wind was stir ring at the time of falling.
