| Fatal Railroad accident |
| A collision occurred on the Raleigh &
Gaston Railroad near Forrestville, N.
C., on Tuesday, killing Lieutenant Clark, of the 22d N. C. regiment;
J. J. Berryville of Charlotte, N. C.; Thos. Roland, of Stanley county,
N. C., and — Nesbit, and wounding fourteen persons, including two
soldiers. The Raleigh Journal says: |
| Mrs. Roland, who is mentioned among the
injured, presents a lamentable case. We learn that she left home,
accompanied by her father-in-law, to visit her sick husband in an army
hospital, but found him dead. She was returning with his corpse, and
by this sad accident her father-in-law was killed and she herself
terribly mangled. |
