    Notes:

    DRUMMOND - A fearful accident took place in the neighbourhood of Galt on Monday last, the 31st ultimo, about 4 o'clock by which a well known inhabitant of the town, Mr. James Drummond, mason, met a most painful death. Mr. Drummond, along with two others, has lately been engaged in cutting saw logs for the Galt mill on the farm of Mr. A. Fergusson, close to the town, there being at the time two other parties chopping in the same bush. About a week ago, a tree felled by Mr. Drummond's party came very near falling on two of the other choppers who were working close to them but under a hill and thus out of sight. On the day above-named, a tree cut by Mr. Drummond starting to fall, he ran to the brow of the hill to give warning to those working below.

    Unfortunately he ran in the direction the tree fell and was caught between it and a fallen log, crushing and breaking one leg dreadfully and seriously bruising the other. Assistance was instantly sought by his comrades and a sleigh having been procured, he was placed therein and driven at once to his own home, and medical aid procured. Although sensible to the last, however the unfortunate man never rallied and expired about ten o'clock the same evening. Mr. Drummond leaves a wife and four children to lament his untimely death.
