Parry Sound, April 21.—A terrible accident occurred last night on the Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound railway at Summit Cut, about eighty miles east of this place, whereby one life was lost, and several persons were injured. A westbound freight train was passing over the big trestle when the fabric gave away, the engine and train going to the bottom. Fireman McLaren was killed, engineer Wm. Canfield seriously and perhaps fatally injured, and brakeman McDonald has a leg broken and was otherwise badly injured.
