Horrible Death. - Sometime during Monday afternoon, as Mr. Daniel Ogden was laboring in his coal bank, about one mile south of our town, the roof of the mine gave way, and a mass of rock weighing near two tons fell upon him, crushing him, as is supposed, instantly to death. Nothing was known of the accident by any one until late in the evening of the same day, when his not coming home to supper, induced the family to look after him. He was found crushed to the ground in the same position he occupied while digging coal. He was a son of Matthew Ogden, one of the pioneers of our county, was about 56 years of age, and leaves a large family to mourn his loss.
