Mexican War Veterans Accident.

SptCIdI 10 ING O3Ztllt-
Wolf CITY. HUNT COUNTY, Tex, Oct
29.-Yesterday morning Mr.. j. j. Robinett,
a Mexican war veteran, who lives about
four miles west of this place, happened to
a serious if not fatal accident while hauling
cordwood out of his pasture. He was rid
ing on a large load of wood. In turning his
wagon the wheel struck the wood so as to
throw the standard out, and that let the
wood fall, carrying him down with it. As
he is very fleshy he could not extricate him
self until part of the load had fallen on him,
holding him until the wheel passed over
him. He was found shortly after by a
neighbor who was passing, and with the
assistance of his family carried home. His
physician says his injuries are internal; to
wat extent he does not know. but thinks
they are not necessarily fatal.

EVIDENTLY A MURDER.
Developments in the Case of the Man
Found Dead on the Arkansas Pass
Road Near San Antonio.
Special to the Gazette.

SAN ANTONIO. TEX, Oct. 29-The man
J. K. Tallett, who was found dead yester-
day near the track of the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass road, between this city and
Elmendorf, eighteen miles north, was I'M
doubtedly murdered. He boarded the train
at Elmendorf under the influence of liquor.
When the conductor came around he obsti-
nately refused to produce either ticket or
money. The train was slowed down
and he was put off. He had Sl5
in his pocket and his ticket. When his
body was found the pockets We're turned
wrong side out. and he had neither money
nor ticket. His head was smashed in be-
hind. He was killed and laid on the track
for the train to pass over him. Mexicans
are suspected. The officials of this city are
investigating, and will probably reach ver-
dict tomorrow. The case is singular.
Some contend that Tallett was killed by his
fall from the train, and that the wheels
ground him up, but there is nothing in the
evidence so far to substantiate this view.

Evening capital. (Annapolis, Md.) 1884-1910, 1891-08-24

The Laurel correspondent OF the Bal
timore Sun. says the old Snowden resi-
dence, on the Patuxent river in Anne
Arundel county, two miles from Laurel,
which was burned Thursday was the
New Birmingham manor-house, owned
by William Snowden. The house was
fully two hundred years Of age and was
supposed to have been built by Richard
Snowden, the third of the name, about
the time of his marriage. IN 1890. Mrs
Hannah Steiger. of Laurel, who has
chronicled good deal of the ueighbor-
hood history. lately wrote several inter-
esting sketches about New Birmingham
and Birmingham Manor, from which the
following story of the Snowdens aud the
old house is compiled:
New Birmingham Manor has been in
the continuous possession Of the Snow
den family for five generations. The
first Richard Snowden of Wales, held a
majors commission under Oliver Crom-
well His son Richard acquired large
tract of land near South River. The sec
ond and third Richard were living De-
cember 10, 171f, when they signed the
marriage certificate of the fourth Rich
ard. The fourth Richard was an iron
manufacturer, and established his works
on the Big Patuxent, half mile from
the manor house, before the year 1885,
These furnaces have always been known
as 1.-THE Snowden Iron Works" The
family was possessed of an immense land
estate, and Iron Richard added 10000
acres to the landed possessions, which
covered good deal of territory in Anne
Arundel, Prince Georges, Howard and
Montgomery counties. 1t is supposed
that one of the Lords Baltimore was in.
terested in the iron works, though, at
his death the fourth Richard Snowden
was the sole proprietor.
