In some unexplained way be became entangled in the machinery, and his head was caught between the large cog-wheel and the cylin der or drum which revolves upon it, and there he stuck.

Taylor, Clerk of the Auditing Committee of the County Commissioners, who provided them with something to eat. To-day it is thought that lb tie C they will be seat back to Pender or to County Poor House.
