CAPTAIN FORWOOD MEETS WITH FATAL
ACCIDENT.

Captain Thomas G. Rorwood, of Bel
Air, met with an accident on Thursday
night of last week which resulted fatally
on Wednesday afternoon. He was driving
from his farm near the Electric Plant,
and when in front ofthe residence ofMr.
George l.. VanBibber, the buggy struck
n stone. The force snapped the
axle at the hub and the horse started
to run away. Captain Forwood was
unable to control the animal and the
negro man, George Carter, who was with
him, grabbed one of the lines. 1t is
thought that he started to jump, and as
he did so, the rear wheel of the wagon
struck him and he fell with great force to
the ground. His wounds indicate that
the left eide of hia face probably struck
stone as the most serious injury was
directly over the eye. Assistance was at
once summoned and the injured man was
brought to his home in Bel Air, where
Doctors Hollingsworth, VanBibber and
Archer rendered what surgical attention
they could. He was unconscious from
the moment of the accident until the time
of his death. On Sunday, DR.. John NJ T.
Finney was called in consultation but
nothing could he done to aid in his re-
covery.
Captain Forwood was forty-onc years
of age and unmarried. He was son of
cx-Sherilf and Mrs. W. Smithson For
wood. His brother Mr.. William S. For
wood. IT., is the present Clerk of The
Court, and was renominated to that
position by the Democrats at the prima-
ries on Saturday. The deceased was
active in establishing the military organ
ization of which he is the present head.
When the company was organized he
accepted position as a non-commission-
ed officer He succeeded Captain w. T.
l.. Taliaferro as Captain. In the Spanish
war this company entered the United
States service, being enlisted at Pimlico.
The company was first sent to Fortress
Monroe where at one time the men had
everything in readiness to proceed to
Santiago. The order was afterwards
revoked and the soldiers were moved to
Camp Meade. From there they went to

The result WAS that the Clerks charges
against the county fell from So, 10000 the
next year to s. $4,000 after the claim that
no ovcrchargcS were made. The charges in
the Orphans Court were greatly reduced
The independent and excellent Boa of Conn

that office to honesty and order. The Charge,
in the Clerks office are still far more than the
law allows.
In defiance of the Constitution Of the State
which requires that all cases Suhrlittcd for

two months after their submission. cases now
on the docket stand undecided after subnIiS-
