Serious Accident.

Monday morning last w. Frank Nc
Chung Esq, Jos. Meredith and seven
year-old son Of ROb't a. Curry were
returning from Fort Spring depot to
Mr.. Curry'S with n twO-horSe team, be-
longing to the latter. Mr.. Curry lives
below the depot beyond the tunnel
about Il mile, the road to his house
leading over steep hill through which
the tunnel runs. Going up the hill
they stopped the team, and Messrs. Nc
Chung and Meredith got out, leaving
the little boy in the wagon. The horses
became frightened and dashed off up
the hill, the two men following close
behind. The boy was finally jOlted to
the rear end of the wagon body and fell
out unframed. After running some
distance the horse fell over an embank-
ment, whilst his mate, very fine mare,
sank into the soft dirt above large log
used in the construction of the embank-
ment. Both became so entangled as to
be unable to move. Mr.. McClung
quickly cut the harness and extricated
the mare unhurt, but the horse and
wagon rolled down the steep hillside and
finally became fastened, the horse on
one side and the wagon on the other of
large tree. The men finally succeed
ing in extricating the horse and in get
ting him OH his feet, but in leading him
around the steep hillside the animal
lost his footing and fell oyer q precipice
200 feet into the river below. Strange
to say he was not killed, but was got.
ten out of the river and led around the
hill to an open field. 1t soon became
evident, however, that he was injured
internally for, whilst standing on his
feet eating, he suddenly fell to the
ground and expired. Mr.. Meredith, in
the hurry of cutting the horse loose
from the wagon, accidentally cut off the
end of his thumb.

from him to his wife, however, seems
10 contradict this. He stated that one
