NP, SMN 1/6/1863

From the Savannah Morning News
 
January 6, 1863
 
   The other day, as a train loaded with troops leaving Jackson, Miss., two soldiers belonging to the late Col. Heiman's 10th Tennessee Regiment, of Nashville, who had been drinking some and were engaged in scuffling on the top of a car, lost balance and fell off. The neck of one was broken, and the other also instantly killed, by being crushed under the wheels of the cars. *****
