The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1890-11-06

Yesterday the stage to Chester,
having on board Mr.. and Mrs. Amos
Baker Of Troy, N. H., broke down
on the fiat this side of d. A. Ben
sons, just over the Londonderry line,
the forward axle breaking short off at
the shoulder. At the break the
horses jumped and the coach was
tipped over. The driver, Almar
Shattuck, succeeded in getting hold
of the horses by the bits and stopped
them at once. All escaped with but
slight bruises. Mr.. Shattuck came
back to II. W. Smiths where he OBJ
tanned an express wagon, and landed
his passengers and mail at Chester
on time.
1t is safe to say that the best
months business, ID the line of pas
senger travel, ever experienced since
the opening of the Brattleboro and
Whitehall narrow gauge railroad, was
during the month of October, when
5000 passengers were carried on the
mail train alone, to say nothing about
those who rode on the mixed, which
shows an increase of 500 over the
same month for the year before. This
excels all previous records for any
one month in the roads history. The
freight traffic during the month OF
September was the largest yet, it 90.
