A Serious Accident.

About g o'clock yesterday morning as MT. E. Gilbert Austin of the firm of Austin & Gilbert, grocers on the corner of Elm and Church streets, was passing the Tontine Hotel he fell on the ice, breaking his left leg at the ankle. A carriage was summoned from Barker & Ransom's stables and Mr. Austin was removed to his home on Elm street. Dr. Russell was summoned and found a very bad fracture, both main bones being broken, as well as small bone running down to the heel. The fracture was successfully reduced after considerable difficulty; and the patient was left as comfortable as could be expected under the circumstances. Many friends called during the day to express their sympathy in his sudden misfortune. He will probably be confined to his house for at least two months.

The Rev. Dr. Vibbert, whose church the deceased had long been identified with, oficiated at the last sad services. The bearers were Drs. Sage, Thompson and Anderson of this city, and Wilson of Meriden, representing the medi- cal profession, and Judge Deming, Major Strong, Willis Hemingway, Charles w. Hem ingway of Fair Haven.
