ETTIER - Isaac Ettier, a brakeman on the Pennsylvania railroad was ground to pieces by his train on Sunday last. The accident occured below Elizabeth Furnace, and portions of the remains were scattered along the track for two hundred yards. Whether he was knocked off by tramps is not determined. Some of the circumstances would seem to indicate foul play, but we presume the truth will never be known until the final consummation of all things. Mr. Ettier leaves a wife and six or eight children.
