The trucks of the mail car struck an obstacle in the way of a mud hole six feet wide and four feet deep , which careen- ed the car to an ag-le of bout 1.80 degrees and tilted the mail agent and a passenger to about 720 de- grees The ngineer shut off steam , but was suddenly thrown from his seat The engine , mail car , passenger and mail agent all went into the mud together but thanks to a kind providence , . the accident happened at a point where mud and water were plenty deep enough to insure a soft place to stop. There were no fatalities and not many injured , as there happened to be only one passen- goer aboard Porter Randolph , the mail agent , was the only one injured as he had to ' couple Old Bill , the engine , to the mail car in mud four feet deep , but to his joy at the time he beheld the draw-bar had been capsized with one of the rear drive wheels of the engine. After replacing the draw-bar with some wire , and straightening up things in the mail tar , he proceeded on his journey.
