“Pswtucket.” came to a stop at the east
end of the drawhridge, the draw being
open. The veteran draw-tender liar-
ford. who was on duty at the time of
the accident 85 years ago. was in charge
of the bridge. and closed—it. being cere-
ful as usual to make a personsl examina-
tion that the movable rails. which
are adjusted after the bridge is
closed, were in place. He then set
. the signal for the engineer to indicate
that all was right. The train come on
to the approach to the draw at the usual
speed. but instead of passing onto the
draw on the roll the forward trunks of
the locomotive left the track where the
movsble rail lop: the draw end bridge,
throwing this rsilout of the pocket in
which it laps when the bridge is. closed.
The drivers of the locomotive undoubto

thrown on ngeiu by the springing of the
movable rail st the opposite end of the
drew, as when the trail came to a stop,
the forward trucks of the locomotive
were at! the tracks and the drivers on
it. The face of the drivers showed very
plainly that they had been in contact
with the rail. The t_rucke of the tender
were both off the tracks on the opposite
side from those of the locomotive. The
forward trucks of the mail car were
oil the tracks on the opposite side from
those of the tender, and its rear trucks
were on the track. The baggage,
were ell oi! the track on the drew. The
forward trucks at the sleeper “Boston"
were ed! the treck on the draw. and the
rear trucks were on the track on the
bridge. 'The other two sleepers escaped
entirely, the trsin having been stopped
before they reached the displaced mov-
able rail on the draw. The movable rail
which was thrown out of place was on
the south std. of the track. All the
rails on the draw on that side of the
truck were turned nps'ule down and
shoved over against the guard timbers,
