He attended to some business here, and then departed northward, to visit the principal towns between Logan and Blackfoot. Success! Recently an infant son of Henry Jemmet died at Deweyville from the effects of taking corrosive sublimate and red precipitate. The bottle containing the poisons had fallen from a clock shelf and before it could be replaced, the child seized it and swallowed the fatal dose. The lightning played havoc at Newton on Tuesday frightening people nearly out of their senses. The electric fluid entered several houses, and did some slight injury to persons and property. A young man named Rigby, while riding on horseback received such a shock as to throw him to the ground. No serious injury was inflicted. Notice is hereby given to the superintendents, choir leaders, and singers of the Sunday schools of this Stake, that a meeting for the purpose of preparing for the coming Jubilee, will be held until further notice on the last Saturday of each month in the Logan Tabernacle, commencing at 11 o'clock a.m. It is earnestly desired that all who have an interest in the matter will be present. Last Saturday the Logan Sunday Schools had a grand celebration of Pioneers day in the Tabernacle here, when music - vocal and instrumental, speeches, addresses, &c. (etc.) were given. In the afternoon, a pleasant party was given in the bowery, at which all found enjoyment. The evening was pleasantly spent at Logan Hall, where an impromptu but very select party was given. On Saturday last a little daughter of Mr. George Carter, who resides in Logan, while with a playmate near a woodpile in the yard, had two of her fingers severed from her hand, by a blow from an ax which was being swung by her companion. Doctors Wingard and Ormsby were sent for immediately. They succeeded in saving one finger but were compelled to amputate the other. On Monday, a young man was brought to the office of Doctor Ormsby, with a terribly mutilated foot. From the account which he gave it appears that while chopping wood in the canyon, the ax slipped and buried itself in one of his pedal extremities. After examination, the Doctor found amputation of the second toe necessary. The operation was performed and the patient is now measurably comfortable. On Thursday night two men came to the Logan House and registered as J. B. Crummie and R. Copeland. They roomed near each other, and all day Friday were in company. That evening Copeland showed Crummie his valise containing $170 in gold. They departed for Salt Lake Saturday morning leaving their baggage at the house. After reaching Ogden - and when they had purchased tickets, Crummie said that he could not continue the journey, as he must stop to see a friend. That same night he returned and before Sunday had rifled the valise of its valuable contents; and then he departed without paying his hotel bill, leaving behind only a hand satchel. Copeland has since come back. No blame can be attached to the proprietor or any employees of the hotel. |
