which drew a train TO the first frigbtful
railroad accident that ever occurred. Up

trophies on the railroads, there had heen
none accompanied by great slaughter, but
that year this engine drew part of a
train on the New Haven read into an omen
draw at Norwalk and caused great loss
of life. The accident was the sensation
OF the year. The engib was fished out
and repaired, and has bcen running on
the road ever since.
A singular circumstance connected with
this accident is that it indirectly proved
the fortune Of the man whose incorrect
signals caused it.. lie He'd and settled in
