the POOls of blood of the unfortun- ate, and the grewsome sight of find- ing a human leg, arm or hand in the wreckage, combined to make it something never to be forgotten. As soon as the news was received in '1‘ignish the telephone and tele- graph operators immediately set to work to get into communication with Summerside and Charlotte- town. A special train was hastily made up at Summerside, which with Dr. McPhee, Dr. Simpson, and two nurses left about 6 o'clock and made all possible haste to the scene of the wreck, arriving there about 8.30. Coroner Morrissey and many residents of Tignish hurried to the scene, but in the blinding storm and cold there was little that could be done except to make the wound- ed as comfortable as was possible under the circumstances.
