• • •Last Sunday night Dee Tong and his brother, William Tong, boarded the baggage ear at Allene, with a view to going to Prescott. They had just gotten comfortably seated between the baggage car and coal tender, when a few miles this side of Allene, the engine parted from the train throwing Dee Long under the whees, where he was run over by the entire train andmangled almost beyond recognition. William clung to the tender until the engine stopped, when lie ran bark and picked up the remains of his brother, which were brought to Wilton on a hand ear by the section crew, where they were turned over to relatives for interment. The presence of the young men on the train was unknown to the train men and the road is free from liability —Little Itiver News.
