THREE FATALITIES. Three fatal acct
dents have occurred to persons living in the
neighborhoOd between the Mason's Mills
road and the two bridges within short
time. November Sd, last, Edward Mcintyre
fell in the attic of his house and broke
through the ceiling, receiving injuries from
which he died Jan. 9TH Irving Ryan fell
from a scaffOld of the Belfast Fuel & Hay
Co. and was instantly killed. Saturday,
Feb. 28th, Mrs. Jennie Hallowell, who lived
on Patterson Hill, so-ealled, started to go
down cellar, the stairs broke beneath her
weight and she fell into the cellar. There
had been heavy rain and the water was
four feet deep in the cellar. Her cries
brought the other inmates of the house, but
Mrs. Hallowell was drowned before help
could reach her. She was 70 years old, and
was the widow of the late Capt. James
Hallowell, once prominent captain in the
cOasting trade in Belfast. Her only rela-
tives are Mrs. George W. Leonard, and an
other sister in Liberty. Mr.. Leonard, gen.
orally known as "Doctor," recently went to
Dexter, and the city authorities were oblig-
ed to bring him home to the poor farm.
Mrs. Hallowell is said to have left some
property. Mrs. Leonard is an heir, and the
doctor was taken home yesterday.
