| Sad Accident |
| As the
train on the Pensacola & Georgia railroad was passing east on
Monday night last, when over the trestle above two and a half miles
this side of Lake City, Lieut. Joseph Law, of the Hamilton Blues, fell
from the train and through the trestle, the distance of some
thirty-five or forty feet. One of his comrades seeing him fall
reported the fact immediately, and the conductor stopped the train and
returned to the place as soon as possible. When found he was alive,
but never spoke. |
