A Narrow Escape.

On Thursday afternoon last one
Of Mr.. II. G. Mamcr's two-muc
teams while returning home from
town came near being crushed al
the railroad crossing Of tho Atlantic
Coast Line Oh the Hebron road by
n material train which was backing
in from Alice. The driver says he
did not hear the train until it wns
right on him, as there was no warn
ing signals given and he just had
time to rein the mules to the right
to prevent q broadsidc smashup
when the car struck the team and
gave them a shock they have not
recovered from yet. The wagon
was not hurt. We learn that NE,
Hamer will proceed against the
road for failure to give tho signals.
