John Everline, a German farmer near
Centre Square. went to Philadelphia some
two months ago and secured a boy named
Harry Melrose from a Christian benevo-
lent association which has an office on
Arch street below Sixth.
The father of Harry Melrose was a dis
sipated man, had married a second time,
and had no home for his son.
On Saturday last the lad, who is ten or
twelve years of age, visited the home of Is
rael James, of this town. and told a terrible
story of starvation and cruelty. He was
clad in thin pair of pants, a shirt and hat,
all the clothes he had, and said that Ever
line had forced him for WI months past to
sleep in the barn. and had brutally kicked
and beaten him many times without cause.
When given something to eat he ate as IT
lie had seen no food for several days. His
body was found to be terribly bruised and
disfigured and confirmed his shocking
story. Word was sent to his father. who
came to Swedesboro on Monday morning
with agent Tolen of the society-tllc same
who prosecuted Mullen, of Paulsboro, for
cruelty to a boy similarly obtained-and
Constable Garrison, with the father and the
agent took the lad to the city by the morn
ing train. There will be an investigation.
and Everline will probably have trouble

While the freight train was leaving our
depot ON Monday afternoon and while pass
ing under the bridge at the upper end of
the town, a brakeman named W. Morgan,
of Camden. who was on top of q car, was
struck by the timbers of the bridge and
knocked down on the ear. The train was
stopped as o as possible and backed up
to our station where the wounded man
could receive medical attention. He had
received a cut on the head, several inches
above the eye, making a painful but not
dangerous wound. A heavy cap which he
had on greatly shielded his head from a
more serious cut, and had he been knocked
from off the car the accident would prob
ably have resulted fatally. lie was taken
home on the four o'clock train.
