Monument dispute sparks town council trouble in Girard
The town council and borough of Girard, Pennsylvania, clash with Ban Rice over a village monument. Rice demanded no extra inscription beyond commemoration, but later added his own name to honor the living as well as the dead, triggering public dissatisfaction in Erie County. A separate New York verdict awarded $5,000 in John Seapan vs Second Avenue Railroad Company for injuries when a streetcar allegedly ran him down while crossing tracks. He, a bookbinder, suffered leg fractures and loss of trade potential. The trial spanned two days amid questions of city railroad liability. A fatal express train accident on Wednesday near the Orange and Alexandria Railroad left three dead and twenty-eight injured, all soldiers of the 96th New Jersey Volunteers, after a car wagon derailed.
