A Narrow Escape.

Mr.. J. E. Brandon. Of the Cooksvlle
neighborhood. was in the city this
week and told THE BEACON of the mar
row escape that he and his two broth
ers, w. A. and G E. Brandon. John
Weston Grove Moselv. Jim G. Per-
mentef and Will Johnson from Shu
qualak, had one day this week while
crossing the Bigbee river on the ferry
near Vienna, Ala
The ferry was we'll loaded with eight
head of horses and eleven men and just
as they got into the swiftest part of the
current of the river, one end of the
rope attached to the wire trolley that
stretches across the river, broke. tn,
boat dipped and came near sinking
This was only prevented by the cool
ness and quick action of the Negro
ferryman, who, according to Mr.
Brandon. behaved like a veteran steam
boatrnan.
The ferry was cut loose from tn
trolley and drifted down the river 70
threo-quarters of mile before land
inRnWas made The narrow es cape We
witnessed by several negroes on tn
bank and the alarm given. A larg
crowd quickly gathered to rende
as.istance
Mr.. Brandon says that had any c
the hprses stampeded or the men be
cor1c panic stricken, the entire part
would have. in all probability bee
drowned, and the Brandon famil
would have been wiped out.
