Railroad Horror in Old Massachusetts.

A railroad passenger train left the track
at West Deertield, Mass, and the cars roll
cd down an embankpnent. 1t is marvellous
that any one escaped alive. The descent
was 1870 feet by actualmeasurement. Four
cars were thrown into the river, among
which was the sleeper; the tender was thrown
to the very bottom ofthe precipice-a mass
OF twisted broken iron and steel, robbed OF
all semblance of their former shape.
Frank Lane OF Boston was standing on
the platform OF the rear car at the time OF
the accident. He said:
He was startled by the humping OF the
cars along the ties. He knew they had left
the track, and jumped just as the train
vent whirling down the chasm, Not star
vas to be seen, and no moonlight. Snow
soon commenced to fall, and in the fullest
80 sense it was q night OF terror. The wailing
Of o. mother over the death OF her little girl
was heartrending. Penned in the wreck,
unable to effect her escape, and expecting
each moaent to be crushed by failing bould-
. ers or debris from the wreck, she passed an
hour OF fearful agony. The shrieks ofagony
were redoublcd as the imprisoned passen-
gers faced the fire. One cry was heard
above the rest, one shrek OF agony and
piteous pleading for help as Hayden, held
fast by the mass OF debris, felt the scorch-
ing flames upon his face, and he sank into
the in~sensibility OF death.
The following is n complete list OF the
killed and wounded as far as found:
