suffered a great loss, when a freight
train ran over and killed three fine
COWS and a heifer belonging to him
This loss falls heavily upon Mr.. Lewis

family to support. The railroad com

pay him the full value OF the stock
killed.
The Roswell Register says: The
train due here from the north at 4:31
p. m, local time, Monday, met with an
accident fifteen miles this side of Por
tales. by which the tender left the
rails and cut something like 200 ties
in two. The train was considerably
delayed, as it took about two hours
and a half to get the tender back on
the track. 1t is fortunate that the
train was running at a moderate speed
or a very serious accident would have
been the result.
