| Railroad Accident |
| A serious accident occurred on the
Charlotte and Statesville Railroad {the
Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio RR},
somewhere near Davidson College, on Thursday last. The passenger train
came in collision with some loaded platform cars which were standing
on the track. The conductor, Mr. Faulkner, had one leg smashed so
badly that amputation was necessary, and a Mr. McNeely, a passenger,
who was standing on the platform, was so seriously injured that he
died soon after the accident occurred. No one else was injured. |
