pond. His head was badly cut, and he
was taken on the same train TO North
Adams, Mass, hospital G. II. Plumb, Of
Bennington, the proprietor Of the team
in the charge Of Brown, was driving an
other team In advance The second
team had passed seemingly halfway
over when the engine struck the wagon.
The two teams were returning from
Pittsheld, Mass, where they had been
with goods. Tie second team had a
covered top and the storm was beating
which prevented the sound Of the
whistle being heard. The mans head
was badly cut, but he was conscious.
The horses broke away and ran to the
hotel, half mile away, where they were
stopped. Pieces OF the wagon were car
ried thirty or forty rods down the
track
The crossing is just north Of curve
