A frightful accident with heavy loss of life was narrowly averted short’y before noon Tuesday when the north-bound passenger train No 72 on the Albany and Thomasville division of the At¬ lantic Coast nine, dashed into a Central of Georgia freight, which was moving over the Coast Line bridge over Flint river. There is something of a mystery con¬ nected with the cause of the col¬ lision, but the two engines met at a point where the trestlo is fully 50 feet above the ground. For tunatoly the engines telescoped, neither being thrown from the trestle end the passenger coaches were not pulled off the track. There was a momentary panic on the part of the passen¬ gers, a curve in the trestle mak¬ ing it an easy matter to witness the collision from the coach win¬ dows. - continued from local page. ||Mrs. F.
