Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Question of Damages On the last day of August, 1857, the afternoon express train met with an accident at Camp Creek crossing. Two cars went down the embankment, the forward one making a headlong plunge to the river-bed, and the other crashing into it. The water was shallow and there were no burning brands scattered to fire the wreck; it was found that nobody had been killed, although five or six passengers were more or less seriously injured. The worst case was that of a man about thirty years old, with black hair and side whiskers, broad forehead, round chin sub-tinted by the roots of a closely shaven beard, and eyebrows pencilled in strikingly black lines across his pallid face. In dress and appearance he was a man of the world, probably a prosperous man of business; but nobody on the train was able to identify him. He was taken from the ruins insensible, with a bad gash in the back of his head, and a broken or dislocated shoulder.
