most serious and fatal accident oc
Cured here Monday afternoon. W. G.
Fay, of Mackville, drove a double team
to the Westinghouse sheds and hitcheC
them securely, as he supposed, but il
. some way they broke away and came
down Main street at q fearful speed, bare
ly passing through the bridge, and whel
opposite the hotel barn they ran over
Il Dorman Bridgman, ST., knocking him
: down and passing completely over him il
their mad race for home. When near tn
cemetery one Grant tried to stop them
i but they turned out of the road, Wen
Il through the fence and down over TIN
S bank, and were found near the broo
Y with the wagon turned over and the nea
horse thrown over the other. The team
was not injured. Mr.. Bridgman was s
: years old last month and quite deaf, an
I. consequently did not hear the team as
/ came up behind him. The neck-yok
stuck him on the hip, doubling him u
and leaving him insensible. He was ia
ken to the hotel and his two sons, Dol
II man Jr., and George, were sent for an
S arriving he was taken home, but only ha
k his senses for few minutes. He died a
=, 5.45 p. m. Mr.. Bridgman was one of GU
Oldest and best citizens, and his saddle
death has cast gloom over the famil
L and community. A more extended &C
O count of his life is found in his obituar
