'A correspondent of the Wellsboro Gazette, from Mansfield, gives the particulars of the death of James Hoard, father of J. S. Hoard, cashier of Ross & William's Bank at Mansfield. Some years ago he fell from a cherry tree,and injured his spine, which became distorted and his limbs were partly paralyzed in consequence. A few days before
his death he fell on a stairway cutting a small wound in his scalp. The wound was dressed, and no harm was feared. He went to bed, and after midnight his wife woke up screaming. A boarder rushed to the room and found her fainting, and Mr. Hoard almost dead from loss of blood, the wound having bled so that the clothing was saturated, a small artery doubtless having been severed by he fall, and not bleeding immediately, because the scalp was jammed upon it. Mr. Hoard lost two quarts of blood it was estimated, and did not rally, dying some days later."
