Ferndale Notes
-D. MUNROE came near having a serious accident last Monday night. We are told that while driving off the ferry boat on the west side of the river that the rope holding the scow to the bank parted, driving the scow from shore and letting the team and wagon which contained Mr. MUNROE's aged mother, his sister-in-law and child, and Mrs. CRAWFORD, in the river, at a point where the hind wheels sunk so deep that the team was unable to pull it out. Prompt action on the part of the ferryman, Charles TAYLOR, in returning the scow to the back of the wagon and getting the occupants out (except Mr. MUNROE, who staid with the team) and also on the part of the citizens in procuring a rope, making fast to the wagon and pulling it out, prevented further accident.«/i»
