Fatal Railroad accident

   A collision occurred on the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad near Forrestville, N. 
C., on Tuesday, killing Lieutenant Clark, of the 22d N. C. regiment; J. J. 
Berryville of Charlotte, N. C.; Thos. Roland, of Stanley county, N. C., and - 
Nesbit, and wounding fourteen persons, including two soldiers. The Raleigh 
Journal says:

   Mrs. Roland, who is mentioned among the injured, presents a lamentable 
case. We learn that she left home, accompanied by her father-in-law, to visit 
her sick husband in an army hospital, but found him dead. She was returning 
with his corpse, and by this sad accident her father-in-law was killed and she 
herself terribly mangled.
