SERIOUS ACCIDENT BEFALLs ALFRED JOHNSON.
 While Alfred Johnson was carrying his milk to Middlebury, the 14.h, he met with an accident. The water runs across the road making it very icy at the steep pitch just this side of the town line. One horse went down which brought the other down, breaking the pole, letting the wagon backward. It went of the unguarded embankment with I3 cans of
 milk. c. H. Hurd's team happened along and all had lively work to separate the horses from what remained of the wagon, which was worthless. All but three cans of milk were lost. The cor respondant would call the attention of the authorities to the condition of this road which greater part of the year can hardly be used with safety to team or occupants. One of our selectmen has been obliged to go around. another way because of the road being so rough. The people do not ask for such road az has just been made on North street but it is suggested that so long as the White Deer Rock road Is left open 1t may be kept in decent repair. Many heavily loaded teams are passing over this road daily carrying milk to Munson and prod uce to Waterbury. It is quite necessary that something be done in order to save greater expense.
