“A WONDERFUL ESCAPE

os

Patrick Hurley Falls One Hundred and Fifty Feet and Lives.

Barnorst, Dec, 19.—A most wonderful escape from instant death occurred at Clifton, about 17 miles from here, on Tuesday lest. Patrick Hurley and James Madden, of Grand Anse, were in town and left fer home about 3 o’clock, each with his ewo team. When near the Roman Catholic church at Clifton it was snowing bard aod very dark. Hurley, who was shead, got off the road and drove overa cliff 150 feet high, As related by Hurley to a friend the horse went over on @ trot, The eled struck a ledge of rock, 50 feet from the top, breaking the shafts off. The horse got clear and fel! 100 feet below. The eled with Hurley fell the same dia- tance, close to where the horse landed. Strange to say, he was only elightly injured. His escape was due to the wraps aud buffalo robes on the sled, and his fur coat al-o protected him. Knowing the locality well he dragged himeelf along three quarters of @ mile to the road which leade to the top of the cliff. When he got t) the top he was too weak toclimba fence to get to the nearest house owned by a Mr. Knowles. Fortunately, Kvowles happened to be in his yard at the time and hearing cries for help went to his assist ance and brought him to the house. Dr. Meahan was summoned and found no bones broken, but badly shaken up. Mad- den, who was following, did not know for some time, though he surmised something of the kind had happened. When he

REMINISCENCES.

Sir,—Some years back it had been found that the cultivation of apples in P. E. Island was very much neglected, much so thata writer in Tae Examiner of that day, in speaking of the large sule of Nova Scotia apples in P. E. Islaud, ob- served that there was nothing derogatorr to their growth in the soil, climate or tem- perature of the Island. Attention was then directed to the cultivation of apples toa larger extent than formerly. New orchards took the place of old ones and ltland apples were largely raised and soon began to show quality they were not behind the produc-~ tions of the sister provinces. Besides supplying their own wants we have orchardists now on the Island, who ship abroad large quantities for which they receive fairrenumeration. One writing in THe ExaMINek some twenty years ago stated the fact that some five thousand dollars were paid in Charlottetown alone to the apple growers of Nova Scotia in one year. Thie caused the farmers of the [sland to give their attention to the growth of apples, and as a result they now ship abroad large quantities of the best in auality growo in the Maritime Provinces.
