When the north bound passenger train
was near Foreston Sanday night, a spring
under the engine broke, causing a delay of
a half hour. Another engine was obtained
at Sumter..to.carry the train to Columbia.
A correspondent at Foreston wrote us
yesterday: "Ab Frierson still lives with
the terrible hole in his head. He says he
is better this morning. He has some fever,
however, and is becoming very restless and
irritable. His powers of endurance are
wonderful."
We learn that Mr. L. T. Fischer, of Sum
snerton, sustained a painful accident some
time ago by having his shoulder sprained
or dislocated. The mule he was plowing
ran away with the plow, and threw him
meagint a stump in the field. Mr. Filscher
is about recovered from -the accident. He
was'in town last week.
We 1earn, that last Tuesday night, April
17th, Mrs. Heyward Coker, of Salem, at

when the can exploded, throwing oil over
her clothing, which became ignited, and
before assistance could , be given her she
was terribly burned. so much so that she died
thernext morning. Mrs. Coker leaves two
small children, the youngest only four
months old.
Mr. J. J. Bragd n has commenced a libel
seiagainst Mr. R. R. Hudgins for $5000
amages to his character. Both these gen
tlemen are of Foreston. The grounds for
libel is based on the communications be
tween these two gentleman, that recently
appeared in4hvTvm above the nom de
plume .of "Office Holder" and "B. A." Mr.
Barroniepresenzts Mr. Bragdon, and Mr.
Ehame represents Mr. Hudgins.
, Nie mnost popular place in town just now
with the ladies is Mrs. Brown's millinery
establishment. She is a lady of exquisite
taste, and has had a number of years expe
rieneun this business. Her store is filled
with new and stylish goods, and her prices,
so they say, are very low. Mrs. Brown
says her intention is to build up a trade and
establish a reputation, so that she is obliged
to sell at prices that will force her custom
era to bay. The ladies are requested to go
and investigate for themselves. Seeing is
believing.
Last Sunday two weeks ago, as Mr. RI. F.
Milligan and family, of Panola, were going
to church, the horse became frightened and
dashed off unexpectedly. Mr. Milligan,
who was sitting in the buggy carelessly,
was thrown from the buggy and the reins
let fall under the horse's feet. After run
ning a short distanace, the buggy wis over
turned throwing Mrs. Mlligan in.1 the
children out of t be buggy. Mrs Milbgan
had the misfortune to have her jawbone
broken, but we a:-e glad to state that she is
doing well, and hopes soon to be entirely
well. None of the children were hurt.
Mrs. Milligan had her infant in oer arm
when thrown from the buggy, but she,
though sustaining so serious an injury,
kept a secure holdl of the baby and saved ii
fromn any injury.

A Terrible Railroad Accident.
One of the most terrible accidents that l
eyer happened near Manning was that, last
Thursday night, at the railroad crossing
on the road across Pocotaligo river, about
( two miles from the Court House. Mr. W.
W. (Bob) Hodge and Mr. T. Jeff Cole's two
youngest children, Lillie and David, were
coming to Manning, in a wagon drawn by
two mules, to attend night preaching at the
Methodist church. They were a little late,
and Mr. Hodge was driving very rapidly,
seemingly to have entirely forgotten the1
(fact that it was train time. The public
road and railroad almost meet each other
about one or two hundred yards from the
crossing, and then each road mnaking a
curve run almost parallel to the crossing.
With proper precaution one can see, when
the roads come nearly together, a long ways
up the track, but Mr. Hodge seems to have
been intent on getting to church, and neith
er he nor the children thought to look for
the train, and they were driving so fast
I that the noise of the wagon prevented their
hearing the coming train. It was about
a quarter past seven o'clock. When the
wagon was about twenty or'thirty feet of
the crossing, suddenly the party became.
aware of the fact that the train was almost I
on them. Whether it seemed to Mr. Hodge
too late to stop the team, and he urged the
mules on, hoping to cross before the train
came up (the opinion of the fireman on the
engine, as he says Mr. Hodge was whipping
the mules on); or,. when Mr. Hodge saw
the train, he attempted to check up the
mules, but was unable to do so (the opinion
of the two children), will probably never
be known. But the team was not stopped,
and as the mules got on the track the south
bound fast mail train struck them. Mr. e
Hodge was thrown fifty feet, and in falling
his head struck against an old cross tie,
crushing his skull in several places, and
causing instant death. The two children
were each thrown from the wagon, but
neither hurt. Lillie was stunned by the
fall, and something punctured her clothing
in the back to the skin, but she sustained?
no hurt at all save a slight bruise on her
hand. David was not hurt at all. One
mule was thrown a hundred and twenty-five
feet, and the other taken up on the pilot of t
the engine and carried for a quarter of a
mile, till the train stopped. Both had their t
necks broken. The wagon, a strong one,
was broken into a thousand pieces. The
wagon body was thrown about forty feet,
and the wheels scattered from a hundred to
two hundred feet. The chair in which Lil-:
lie was sitting was completely demolished,
and the seat thrown seventy-five feet. Da
vid, about nine years old, as soon as he t
could pick himself up. ran to his sister,,
about thirteen years old, and tried to arouse I
her, but could not. Then he ran to his un
cle Bolt and attempted to aroue him. He 2
again went to his sister, and got her arous
ed. By that time the train returned to the e
scene, and took the two children on board, j
but Mr. Jeff Cole coming up just then, they t
got in the buggy with him. t
Mr. Hodge was thrown on his face and ;
sustained the principal injury on the front
and left. side of his head. He had an arme
broken. It is very probable, had he been
thrown two feet further, beyond that cross
tie, that he would not have sustained any
serio'us injury. His body was brought to
Manning;, and placed in the Furstenburg! I
hail, where it remained till Saturday.
Friday, .a coroner's jury with Mr. W. J1. a
Clark a~s foremuan, w'as empaneled at 12 C
o'clock by Coroner P. C. Cochran, and after a
hearing testimony from Lillic, David, and 1
T. Jeff Cole, J. U. Price, -Lucius, the I
baggage master, -- Taylor, the section s
master. W. Z. Nettles, the enginee:-, and G. I
W. Gruber, the conductor oi' the train, the t
evidence consuming about two hours of i
time, a verdict was rendered by the jury
that W. W. Hedge came to his death by t
colliding with engine of No. 53, the down I
train, and that the killmng was accidental.
The engmneer was on the shie of the engine
opposite to the wagon, and did not see the r
wagon at all. He testified that the mules t
ran on the track just as the engine was at
the crossing. The engine was only slightly
injured. The headlight was smashed in, 1
and the pilot broken.
The aiccident was a terrible one, end it
is almost miraculous how the little childreni
escaped unhurt. It is thought by some
that they jumped out of the wage before.
the train struck the mules, but they say
they did not. The little boy who was sit 1
cing by the side of Mr. Hodge, opposite
from the train, says he did not see the en
gine till it was within a few feet of the wag on.
The chair, as stated above, on which the I
little girl wa~s sitting, was broken into a
great many pieces.
Mr. Hedge was a member of the Man-1
ning Baptist church, and1 last Saturday
morning Rev. T. J. Booke, p astor of the
Baptist church of this place, preached a
beautiful and appropriate funeral sernron
over the body of the deceased, after which
the burial took place in the Manning cem
etery.
Mr. Hode was a good citizen, but quiet
and undemonstrative. At the beginning of
the civil war, he joined Capt. W. E. Keels's
company, and was a brave and faithful sol
dier during the entire war. Mr. Hodge wasi
unmarried and fifty-nine years of age.
Fragmients from Foreston.
Fonizs-ros, April 23.-Though it has been
quite cool for a day or two, we believe no
damage ha~s been done to either crops or
fruits. It is now quite pleasant again.
Most of our farmers are through with plant
ing, and somec of the wide-awak e ones have:
begun to plow the corn. Cotton chopping
has also begun en Maj. Land's Doctor
Swa:up plantation. which is presided over
by Mr. Gee. Hughes. The lad who was
wounded last week still lives and appears
'to be in about the same condition. Dr.
Boyd, of Williamsburg County, visited him
1last evening, but was of the opinion that
our Doctor had done all that could be ac

Accident at ireeleyville.
GnEI.Ervux, April 21.-The rain and
hail of Wednesday afternoon, 18th inst.,
did no damage at tl: .aace, but on the San
tee road, a few miles t the injury to
gardens crops and farming lands was very
serious. Messrs. Cantey, Montgomery,
Tutte, Alsbrook, Rhodus, Lesesne, and oth
ers had their cotton beds washed to a level,
growing corn covered up with earth, manure
carried away, besides having a complete
stop put to further preparation and plant
ing. Others who did not suffer so seriously
were sadly disappointed in being prevented
from attending the marriage of a popular
young couple just over the line in Clarendon
County.
The young man, Ap Frierson, who was so
seriously injured at Messrs. Boyle and Ho
pn's mill, at this place, a few days since,
was not an employee of the mill. There
was no occasion for him to be where he was
it the time, nor for indulging in the curios
ity which led to the accident. The engineer,
Foung Charley KEazelle, warned him of his
langer, but he did not heed the warning.
When he became entangled in the machin
try, Kazelle shut off the steam and grasped
he belting, which was just the thing, and
he only thing which he could do to save
he unfortunate youth from further injury.
'or this warning to one in danger, and the
'emarkable presence of mind and prompt
Ltion, Mr. Kazelle deserves great credit. 1

ore he left, many souls were converted to

orn hearts. The parting scene Sunday
tight was truly touching. The altar was
rowded three or four deep with old Chris
ians, new converts, and penitents. Mr.
iodbey exhorted all to hold on steadfastly,
o hold frequent meetings, and ever to be
eady to testify to God's glory and name.
.oward the close of his work he got to using
ilder and more elegant expressions. He e
