| Railroad Accident |
| The freight train on the M.
& W. P. {Montgomery & West Point} Railroad,
coming down yesterday morning, ran off the track some seven or eight
miles this side of Chebaw, killing one negro man and breaking an arm
of another. It was found upon examination, that a switch at that point
had been put out of its place by some fiend, which had caused the
accident. The passengers on the down train last night, did not arrive
at this city until 4 o'clock this morning, having been delayed by the
changing of cars in consequence of it. |
