81 years OF age, who had died on the
previous morning from the effects of ex-
posture to cold and wet, on the night of

more, Agivey, where deceased resided.

companied by deceased, to catch the
train for Coleraine, but missed it. They

seven miles,, but after nightfall deceas-
ed became exhausted, and notwithstand-
ing the efforts of her sister, she could
not keep on her way, but sat down on
the roadside, where the pair remained
until daybreak. The medical evidence
was to the effect that death had resulted
from exposure to cold and wet. Verdict
accordingly.

An army pensioner named Fitzgerald,
| residing in Evergreen, Cork, died sud-
denly on April 18th, while going to
work.
On April nth, a young man. named
Humphrey O'Driscoll, of Kylemore, was
found in mangled state on the rail-
| way track, between Madore and Drimo-
legue railway stations, at BallyadoWn
| bridge, and died of his injuries the same
night. It appears that number of
| friends and relatives of the deceased
| were going Off to America the previous
| morning, and were escorted to the Ma
dore station by a host Of their connec-
tions, many CT whom had been with
them during the previous night. There
was the usual weeping, cheering, and
confusion around the train during it's
limited stoppage. and this continued I'M
til the train Was out of sight of the plat
form. The deceased was not noticed by
| anybody to have got on the train and
the first that was noticed Of the affair
was observed by some milesmen, who OBJ
served some object spinning head over
heels on the track after the train had
passed over Ballyadown bridge, neither
guard, engine-driyer, nor passengers
I knowing the least about the tragic event
after the train arrived at the Drimo-
league Junction. The natural s,,rmise
is that the unfortunate young man, Who
| was abount 20 years of age, must have
gor OH the,off side, Or buffers, of the last
carriage, and when passing by his fa-
theirs house may have tried to jump off,
or.falten OFF, and sustained the dreadful
injuries which resulted in his death. DR..
Crowley was summoned from Drimo-
league, as also clerical aid, but the un-
fortunate young mans injuries were of
such aScharacter that the doctor saw i'm
rnediately there was no hope as death
speedily ensued.
