Last Sunday several fellows near
Newport thought they would have
good time. So they procured a lit
tie fever age, and getting hand
cal they started out, as we learn, to
go fishing. When they got ready
to return home they thought they
would leave the car. One of the
party, however, objected and insist
ed on taking the car back. His COM
panion took the belt off from the car
and started back, leaving him to
push the car along the road. After
while he got tired and sat down on
the car to rest, and being rather
drunk he fell asleep. An extra train
over the line ran into the car smash
ing it up and injuring the fellow so
that he died the same night. He
leaves a wife and five children. If it
is ascertained that the liquor was OBJ
tanned this side of the Line the town
is liable to apply the Civil Damage
law to the case.
