A large crowd OF people waiting for the
1870 p. IN. train for the race track ycster-
day had their relish for the promised turf
sport seriously but temporarily interfered
with.
Mrs Dan Strong, wife Of a well-known
and universally admired engineer and ma
chinist, confronted them with frightful
wounds and bruises which rendered her
unconscious and majority OF the sympa-
thetic witnesses exceedingly uncomfort-
able.
The unfortunate lady resides on Madi-

Memphis & Charleston Railroad. She in

throng OF race attendants. From her house
TO the depot there is a nearer way than

shortcut was down path on the side OF
the declivity west OF the railroad track,
south OF the bridge, thence northward
along the tracks in the yard OF the COM
pany. This was the route chosen by Mrs.
Strong
The long train Of passenger coaches,
which had carried great number OF peo-
pie TO the race track, was returning, and
nearing the yard when Mrs. Strong started
for the depot She had reached the
tracks, crossed them 10 the west side. and
was walking rather rapidly under the
bridge when the locomotive came along.
Between the track IL took and the west
pier OF the bridge there is scant space for
the most level headed person TO pass, and
ladies are not generally OF this class in
emergencies. In trying TO eyade mud
hole Mrs. Strong unwitungly stepped
toward the moving train. The engine
struck her on the right side Of tho head,
fracturing her skull and also injuring her
left side. She was knocked unconscious,
carried along for several feet and then
thrown 10 one side.
The accident was witnessed bya number
OF people and produced a perceptiblo
shndder over all OF them, particularly the
ladies' Ready hands were at once 10 tho

At latest accounts Mrs Strong was still
unconscious and not expected TO live.
