SAN FRANCISCO, August 19.-An Er.
aminer special from Steubenville, O..
says A peculiar accident occurred near
here this afternoon, resulting in the death
of Geo. Owens and his wife and son. The
two men were engaged in digging we'll
on their farm and we're hoisting earth
and stone with a windlass and heavy
bucket. AS the father was drawing up
load the rope broke and the
bucket fell, striking the son, who
was in the we'll. AS soon
as assistance could be procured, the
father was lowered into the we'll. where
he found his son insensible. He had him
drawn up to the surface and the rope was
again lowered for the father, who was
hoisted almost to the surface. when the
rope broke again, and Owens fell to the
bottom, breaking his neck. He died in
stantly. Mrs. Owens was so shocked by
the news of the death of both husband
and son, that she has since died.
