 SAD ACCIDENT. r7f
 Last Monday, Mir. Flayel Moseley, the baggage e-master at the Warehouse Point depot, was run over and killed. He un- dertook, as an accommodation, to hand one of the brakemen on the way freight that passes the station at about 1.3O, shaclSle or link. He stepped in front of two cars attached to an engine which were backing up the track and was struck and knocked down. Both cars passed over him and a portion of the engine aiso. He was twisted around so that both lege were thrown under the wheels and horribly crushed. He was also injured internally and externally. Death came to the relief of his snfferings at about four o'clock.
 MT. Moseley was a gentleman of quiet industrious habits, friend to everybody, and everybody who knew him was his friend. He came to Warehouse Point in May, 1880, and has proved faithful at all times. For nearly that time he had been organist at the M. K. church, and although not member of the same was steady attendant. As member and adiutant of Joseph H. Converse Post, No. 67, G. A. R., he was we'll known among the veterans He took very great interest in the order, and was one of the most valued members. He was also member of Wolcott Lodge of Free Masons of Stafford, in which town he had lived nearly all his life. He leaves wife and two children, one about 16 and the younger about 4. That they have the sympathy of the entire community is say ing but little.
 The funeral was attended on Wednes- day. There were brief services at the house at six o'clock in the morning, and then the body was taken to Staffordville. A delegation of the Grand Army Post went as an escort, and some others from Ware house Point. Rev. MT. Martin accompa- nied the funeral party and delivered an impressive address at the M E. church in Staffordville. At that place the funeral services were conducted by the Masonic fraternity and he was buried with Masonic honors.
 Thus life has passed away and sincere mourners go abont the street, but his vir- tues will live on and his memory will he reversd by all. .... .. ..,,' ...-.. Hartford Times Willimantic correspond ence: There is trouble brewing in the circle of Congregational churches in Wind l ham county. 1t has been evident for some time that there was a disaffection among the churches of that denomination soon after the advent of Rev. s. R. Free to the First Congregational church of this place, and when one of that gentleman's sermons was printed, it evoked sharp re- ply from one of his ministerial brethren. Since then the split has been increasing until the installation of the Rev. Mr. Kel- sey, of Windham, a short time since, when no invitation was sent to the church here to attend. To-day was to have seen still further exhibition of non-fellowship when the ministers of the denomination were to have held their quarterly meeting in this place i'll the Baptist church. This meet The principal objection by his opponents to MT. Frees preaching is that it is ''lln- orthodox" that in many respects he diff fels In belief from the church doctrine, and while they have no objection to his airing his views in the proper place they think the Congregational church is not the right one. Some time ago the Berk- shire (Mass. ministerial society summon ed Mr. Free before them on the charge of being ''unorthodox," and he resigned his , membership with that body. He is very popular among the people here, drawing a larger congregation to his evening ser vice than any other preacher in town, al- though the attendance in the morning is not always as large as could be desired. The policy of the Willimantic church is q non -committal one, just as little being said on the subject as possible, and prob ably no notice will be taken of the slights of'the sister churches. Itremains to beseen whether these churches will take up the matter further and visit this church with an official investigation. ..-s
