We learn that as the down
train on the B. B. B. & C. {Buffalo Bayou,
Brazos & Colorado RR} road was coming into Richmond on Friday
last, going at full speed, the locomotive running backwards, a cow got
on the track, the locomotive run upon her, and was upset, making a
wreck of that and the mail and baggage cars.
The passenger car was not injured.
No one was killed. Two
persons were considerably injured.
Mr. Bryant McIntosh, news boy on the train had his foot mashed,
and a Mr. Wade was injured in the back, how seriously is not known.
Others were slightly injured. |
