Killed ON the Rail.

Another fatal accident occurred on the
Delaware railroad last Saturday night, near
the entrance of the bit of woods this side
of Armstrong; crossing, and man and a
woman, Alfred Pratt and Louisa Jackson,
both colored, were instantly killed by the
south bound midnight express. They, in
company with several others, were walk
ing up the track, and in stepping out of
the way of an approaching north bound
freight, must have become bewildered and
got on the other track in front of the ex-
press as it came laundering along. The
woman was thrown oyer the fence into a
field, her leg and arm broken and received
a terrible cash in the head. Both were
killed instantly. The express stopped, and
took the two dead bodies on board, also
their companions, and brought them to
Middletown. A Coroner's inquest was
held on Monday. and the funeral took
place on Tuesday. Both of the unfortu-
nate victims are well known here, the man
some months ago did a brave act in
stopping runaway horse and rescuing
two ladies and child on Main Street.
The woman was the widow of William
Jackson, who was known as an excellent
farm hand. She lived in one of the little
houses near the Frogtown crossing.
