ONTARIO, FRIDAY OCTOBER 19 1906 (31-odiertch Falai spay PERT InTc• Wynn, nEtow -Caught by sudden gust of vtind, the hoisting engine ,being Used in the con- struction of the new bridge over the Maitland River, on the Gnelph-Goder- ich line, was blown iizto the river Fri- day at 11 o'clock, and as a result one man Was killed and three were injur. ed. A large gang of men were at work on a car attached. to the engtne when the accident happened, but only four wont down into the river when it was carried away. The drop from the bridge to the river was a drop of CO feet, and the engine was demolished by the fall. Madiford was caught in the wreckage and instantly Itilled. The other three men fell clear of the wreckage and were only hurt by fall- ing. The water broke their fall and the worst injuries :which they sus. tained were bruises. The bridge was being , constructed by the Canada Foundry Company, and the hoisting engine was thought to be in a- safe position. I orenlan J. P. Amey was interviewed and gave it as his version of the accident that the men on the engine had been caught unprepared while the boom of the engine was sus- pended over the water and that a__ heavy gust of • wind came along it was sufficient to topple the engine into the river. Had the boom been drawn up the engine would not have been top- pled over. The men had.been warned against this, but evidently they were unprepared. The engine fell with a great crash, and carried* the car at- tached with it, and the machinery was, twisted into a tangled mass. Madiford was caught beneath the wreck and terribly crushed. 'Madiford is said to • have been an English church clergy- man at one time, and only this week he received it letter from his mother in London. England, asking him to come home and live with them again. It is said that he had intimated an in- tention complying with her request and returning to live with his relatives in England, who were reported to be wealthy. .The other men were done oulfrora the shock of the aceident,sbut it has not been discovered that any of them have suffered internal injuries.. in Goderich reports were spread that - many more had been killed, and doc- tors were hurried to the scene. Their assista,nce was little needed. , When Madiford was extricated frond the .wreckage life was extinct. • The coroner's jury, which met on Friday and viewed the body of Engin. gineer Maddeford, killed in the falling of a hoisting engine and taeltle 'from the Guelph and Goderich Railway bridge, held their adjourned meeting. atten o'clock on Saturday morning,at which all the employes of the Foundry Company appeared, but were not call- edon as witnesses.TheCancide,Foundry CompanY wishes to be represented, a,nd for this reason the inquest was ad- journed till Saturday morning, next. The coroner requested the jury to view the scene of the wreck and the question of conveyance arose,the place being somewhat difficult of access. Crown Attorney Seeger advised that no provision was made for this item of expense, nor -yet for the payment of witnesses, and expressed the opinion that these things should be provided for by the law.

In many oases the rest- ing places of the dead are marked by fine and costly monuments, showing that ' their friends had not entirely foreotten them. But a stranger pass- ing these ' places would 'at once con- clude that those who lie beneath the sod have now no friends living. They have an abandoned, neglected' look that is unmistakeable. • Brush and light undergrowth of all kinds cov,er the graves; several of the tombstones have fallen over, and to people of a sympathetic nature it must be an eye- sore to see this state of things. Even if these cemeteries are not now used; it.w.ould show respect for the dead if there was some evidence of'care, how- ever slight If .,. the people whose friends are buried here would make a "bee," they. could make a'. vast im- provement in the appearance by a single day's work. It need not cost the outlay of a dollar beyond thelime consumed.
