Mrs. Lavinia NJ. Dwinell, widow of
Major John Dwinell, died at her home in
this village early Sunday morning at the
age of IS. She had been in feeble health
more than a year and Friday evening she
fell on the doorstep, striking her head
on the stone, and never recovered con-
seriousness. But for her strong natural
vitality, death might have Immediately
followed the shock. AS Il was. action of
the heart continued, growing hourly more
feeble. until the spirit was released.
Mrs. Dwinell was born in Dummerston

married Major Dwinell and came to their
Grafton farm So years ago. This she
found a very pleasant location and for
10 years, lived a happy life among its
attractions, and then they moved to the
village, where she found almost equal
opportunities for enjoying the interesting
manifestations of country life. AS long
as her strength permitted she continued
her walks along the roads and through
the fields as Burns walked in glory and
joy upon the mountainside. She had
marked individuality OF character, orig
inal wit, a Yankee shrewdness of OBJ
servation and expression which made her
a very interesting woman. She was a
devoted member OF the Congregational
church and In all her relations of church
and society. especially in her pleasant
home, she will be sadly missed She
made the most OF those charms of coun-
try life which many neglect, the trees and
flowers, the birds and green grass, a thou
sand charms which like day in June
are free to the humblest country folk.
Mrs Dwinell was buried in the village
cemetery Wednesday afternoon. She

sionary field, who left Rutland August

minent danger of pounding to pieces.
Word has just been received here,
indirectl5, from the bishop Of Honolulu,
that the eight missionaries, Of whom
Miss Stewart Is one, were safe, but
that whether their baggage would be
saved was a matter of doubt. Part of
their voyage was extremely rough, ow-
ing 20 IL earthquake at Valparaiso.
Much anxiety was felt by the mission
aries concerning their trunks, as they
contained practically all their personal
possessions for the journey and for the
settling down in the foreign land.

New Tngland foreign and domestic mis-
sionary society. She finished her course

A Terrible Death for a Barre
Man
ON MOUNT WASHINGTON
Fred Cusick Was Making Descent Of
Mt. Washington R. r. on a Slide
board When He Was Hurled
to the Rocks Below.

Fred Cusick, Barre man, was thrown
from slide board on Mt. Washington
and instantly killed early Thursday
morning. lie was coming down from the
summit on slide board with the road
inspector on another slide board lust
ahead Of him. The inspector was max
ing the usual inspection of the track.
He heard Casick coming behind him ami
rolled off the track, but the fog was 10
dense that Cusick did not see the empty
board in front Of him and he struck Il
while going at full speed The brake
man of the Mt. Washington train, which
was coming down Just behind the men,
saw the accident and says that the man
was hurled $50 feet in the air striking
his head and face on the solid rock. The
face was 80 horribly mutilated that it
was not recognized when the train hands
reached the body.
Cusick had been an engineer on the
Mt. Washington railroad for the last 30
years, but during the last two years he
had worked in the shop at the foot of
the mountain, only going to the summit
when needed TO make some repairs az
was the case when lie met his death. He
had been called to the top the night be-
fore staying there all night and was COM
ing down to his work in the morning.
The slide board travels down the
at tremendous speed, and
none but those who have grown accus-
toned TO the dangers Of that mode Of
travelling care to make the trip. The
is simple affair, large
enough for man to sit down upon. II
is provided with simple brake so that
the traveller il able 10 stop himself af-
ter time. But the incline is SO steep
that very swift pace is reached when
the board is unchecked. On either side
Of the track there are sheer descents Of
scores and sometimes hundreds of feet.
The small train makes its tedious trips
up and down the mountain side by cog
contrivance on the engine.
James Boyee, the brakeman who wit
messed the accident accompanied the re-
mains to this city last night. The body
was taken TO the home OF Joseph Cum
inings ON Elm street, where short fil-
neral service WAS held. Rev 4. A. Poole
otficiated The body was then taken on
the midnight train to Salisbury, n H.,
for burial
Mr.. Cusick spent his winters in this
city and was very well known here. He
is survived BY wife and child who re-
side in Wehsterville; sister, Miss
Maggie Cusick Of this city; two brothers,
Phillip Cusick, who lives in Canada, and
John Cusick living in Minnesota.

Train Came Along and Killed
Him
FATALITY AT vERGENNES
Unknown Man Had Been in Ancient
City Looking for Work May
Have Been From
Winooski.


Vcrgennes, Aug. 25.- Deliberately
sitting on the track about mile south
OF this station an unknown man was
struck by the northbound sleeper about
six O'Clock last evening and instantly
killed. The body was carried about rs
yards by the train and nearly every
bone was broken. The train crew gave
notice here and the selectmen Of Ferris
burgh ordered the body taken to Cor
hams undertaking rooms, where it
awaits Identification and further dis
position.
The engineer saw the man on the
track and blew the whistle but the man
paid no attention to the warning.
The man was about the city yester-
day afternoon inquiring for work and at
one place said he was from Winooski
and moulder by trade. There was d
book and several other articles in his
pocket but nothing to reveal his identity
Apparently the man was about 40
years old, of medium height and weigh
ed about 175 pounds. He was light COM
plexioped, had sandy hair and was d
little bald. Apparently he was in rugged
health.
