Since the days of '76 no more beautiful
day marked the great National festival in
New Jersey than Monday, July A. 1904
The sun shone brightly all day and a re-
freshing breeze impaired a delicious cool
ness that made any sort Of IAN of cele-
brating pleasant and enjoyable. So far as
we have been able to learn, no accident oc-
Cured to mar the pleasures of the day any
where in our county, though thousands
patronized train and trolley and lake, river
ponds and parks. There were no drown
ings, no shootings, no accidents and few
cases of paralysis, hence we may congratu-
late Gloucester county people and our
visitors on the saneness Of their doings on
the day we celebrate.

Charles Moncrief, of Bridgeton, aagman
on the local freight between Bridgeton and
Camden, was killed on the tracks at $40
last Thursday morning. His train had
crossed to the north bound tracks to leave
some cars, also to let an extra Cape May
freight pass, and he was sent back to give
a clear road. The engineer of the extra
saw him seated on the end of the ties, and
expected him to get out of the way, but he
did not move, and was crushed under the
engine. There is feeling that he might
have been hit by tramps and rendered un-
conscious. He was an only son. Coroner
Wilson held an inquest and verdict of
accidental death was rendered
