tine hands stuck fast in the mud. There
were no fractures of the limbs, and only

pany's ship-yard, and nephew of Edwin

tended to see the performance at the
Opern House. He learned his trade in
this city, and worked at the yard where
he was last employed during his life. He
was unmarried, and his body was taken
IN charge by his brother-in-law and re-
moved to No. 922 jackson street.
Coroner Barnhill on Christmas. dav
held a post mortem examination on the
body of Matthew Tobin, who died in an
apopletic ft, the result of drinking.

KILLED IN THE WEST YARD.
Happy KOuhE Husband Suddenly
Hurried LIMO ElarniIYa


Hurled Hnto Eternity
George Garner, young brakeman on
the Delaware railroad, was mashed be-.
tween two cars and killed in the west
yard about 9 80 O'Clock Tuesday morning.
He was engaged in coupling cars, and was
caught between two of the approaching
cars about the lower part of the body and
badly squeezed. He was at opce brought
to the railroad morgue, where he soon
afterwards breathed his last. He showed
little or no external injuries or fractures
Garner was young man between 25
and 80 years old, and only began working
on the railroad last May, when he lived
iu Middletown. He removed to this city
little over week ago with his Young
wife and little baby, and lived happily at
No. 325 Poplar street. Mrs Garner was
alone with her child when the news of
her husbands death was brought to her
and her grief was pitiable to see.
Neighbors hurried to comfort her, but
without avail. She related that Monday
morning, her husband had left her in ex-
cellent spirits. He had predicted snow
storm before he returned home and
therefore took with him hymn or song
book, with which, he said, he whiled away
his leisure time pleasantly.
Mrs. Garner returned to her relatives,
in Middletown, at O'Clock Tuesday after
noon, and the body was forwarded to the
same destination Tuesday afternoon.
