WHO IS IT?
TO TH« RMTjR,
Kir—Only a few days ago a dreadful accident happened on the southern railway line, viz., the (accidentally shooring of Henderson, fiieman on a railway engine. No doubt a piece of carelessness or boyish foolishness, but what a sad ending fo a young man in the prime of life. This shows that p treats should he more cautions in allowing their children to carry fireai ms, especially as they hj ive never been taught how to use them. There is, I believe, an Act which states that no person shall fire off a tun within s certain-distance of any public roa I or highs way ; but notwithstandingthis some person in Clyde is in the habit of discharging his gun very frequently inside the town boundary. Allow me to remind this individual that it would he well if he were to discontinue the practice, and if the small birds do annoy him, to adopt other means of scaring them.—l am, etc.. Resident. August 3'th. 188.3.
