Tuesday, February 5, 1884 ACCIDENTS.- We cannot take up an exchange without noticing some fatality. The drought having broken up and transport riding re-commenced, with it recommences the list of accidents. We also heard of a Mr HENER who was thrown from his horse at Moore’s Shop, Tembuland. The horse which also fell rolled over him and he was killed. SAD ACCIDENT.- We greatly regret to announce the death of Mrs BLAINE, wife of Captain BLAINE, C.M.R. stationed at Lady Frere, which resulted from an accident, the lady having been thrown from her horse a few days since. She was buried on Saturday last in the Queenstown Cemetery. The deceased lady had a large circle of friends both here and everywhere where she was known. SAD AFFAIR.- On Saturday afternoon last subsequent to the funeral of Mrs. BLAINE, Trooper CLIFFORD who was stopping at Beaumont’s Hotel, mounted his mare to water her at Hulley’s Drift. Something appears to have excited the animal, which turned restive, and her rider was thrown on the stones at the Drift, and on assistance arriving he was found to be unconscious and was at once removed to the Frontier Hospital where he died on Sunday afternoon.
