ABBOTT--Hiram Abbott of St. Edward met with a terrible accident last week; while alighting from his horse he fell, one foot being held fast in the stirrup. He was dragged several times around the yard by the frightened horse, and when finally liberated by his shoe pulling off, he was horribly mangled, causing his death a few hours afterwards. His funeral took place Sunday.
