IrrOm IH6 WluSCtu HeraIu.
 Lucius Woodford, who drove stage on the Pitts6eld line from Hartford to Albany more than fifty years since, died at Collinsville the morning of the 18th inst. He was the last. with one excep- tion, of the orivers on that line. Benja- min O. Hosford, I believe, is still living near Unionville, nearly 90 years of age. Mir Woodford was nearly 80. There are not more than one or two of the old drivers on both lines, I think, now liv- ing. MT Woodford died of the Grippe.
