Mrs. Mead Martindale was struck and instantly killed by train No. 8 last Thursday evening, near her residence about one-half mile west of Wells Bridge [Otsego Co. NY]. She was walking on the track, going to a place known as the old Schofield place, it is stated after pio-plant. The train, which was fifteen minutes late, was running at a high rate of speed and at the point of the road where she was struck, trains from the east cannot be seen a great distance. The engineer of the train saw Mrs. Martindale when only four or five rods away, too late to stop the train. He, however, blew the whistle and put on the air brakes and did all in his power to avert the catastrophe but of no avail. She appeared to be paralyzed with horror and unable to move, and as the engine struck her, she was hurled about twenty feet. She was about 23 years of age. Her death strikes with terrible force upon the husband, who with three little children is left to mourn her loss.

Henry Slaven fell into the river at the upper bridge last Monday afternoon between the hours of four and five and before assistance could reach him was drowned.
He, in company with his sister, was fishing from one of the piers when he was taken with an epileptic fit, to which he was subject, thus causing him to fall in. His sister did all in her power to rescue him, not giving up the attempt until there was danger of herself being drowned.
The boy, who was in his fourteenth year, was deaf and dumb, though his hearing was beginning to come to him and he could speak a few words. For some years past, he has been in a New York institute for the deaf and dumb and had reached home only a few days before the sad termination of his life. He was a bright, intelligent boy and had acquired considerable proficiency in the trade he was learning which was that of a tailor. His mother, who is a widow, has the sympathy of the entire community in her sudden bereavement.
The funeral was held from St. Matthew's church, Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
