end of the baggage car was derailed and
the passenger car next behind the baggage
car was tipped over, one end going down
an embankment.
There We're six passengers in the car,
but they all said they were not hurt. A
telegram for relief was sent to Brattleboro,
and Conductor Rouse took up the neces-
sary apparatus on his mixed train, leaving
Brattleboro about 10 O'Clock. The passen-
ger train was started about o'clock, pass
ing the mixed train at Jamaica.
Soon after leaving Williamsville about 3
o'clock, misfortune again overlook the
train, and one of the wheels of the tender
broke. Another telegram was sent to
Bratteboro and the only available engine
on the road was sent up with a new set of
wheels. The disabled engine was lacked
up and the new wheels put under it so that
the train finally arrived in Brattleboro be-
tween l and 2 o'clock this morning, fol-
lowed by the mixed train which overlook
it at West Dummerston on the return trip.
The passenger train started back for
South Londonderry about $3.50 O'Clock
this morning, and on arriving there started
