letting go of the roof, I rose without
encount ring further trouble to the
surface"
Reemer was almost exhausted. but
he had strength to swim to a pile.
He had both arms around it when
the thirC: coach fell, the rear platform
almost striking him. Reemer was so
close to the a that he was covered
by the splash. He saw that there
were persons caught in the coach, and
dropping from the pile, with a few
strokes he managed to lay his arms
across the roof. Then, working along
the side Of the coach, he kicked In
several windows, through which sew
eral passengers worked their way TO
safety. Reemer vas taken out OF the
water by two men in a roWboat.
Blood vas running from his ears and
mouth, but physicians believe he will
suffer no permanent injury.
Marco Bono, an Italian merchant
Of Philadelphia, met with a terrible
death. His end was doubly pathetic
by reason of the fact he would have
lived had he maintained his presence
of mind. He was in the last coach
and went down with it. Three fisher
men in a skiff attempted to rescue
Bono, but the man lost his reason.
He got his head through the top of
a window, and instead of remaining
quiet, he disobeyed the instructions
of the men and became violent. In
his struggles he was frightfully cut
on the broken glass, and the water
was dyed with his blood. Finally, he
was pulled out by the fishermen, but
he died from loss of blood five min
utes after he had been hoisted to the
trestle. His neck was covered with
wounds, and one of his fingers was
almost severed.
