Bean= DXSTri on Tan CITIEF ENGMER OF
, I,WAE:IIEPIT.--Dtivid' Lyle , Esq.,
the - ahlefEttgintior of the Fire Department, was
found dead in his office at the' B. %.',iiorner of
Fifth and ebbe:tout. streets this' morning. On
Saturday Oblei Lyle was in his usual health and
ePtrite- About two o'clock: on Saturday
nfteindoni West Blake, Eeq., the
Secretary or the Department ' _ left the office
and was told by the Chief that he
need 'not return again. About an hour after
watts the deceased was ebiesrved at a place in the
neighbOrhOod and returned to his office. That
was the lastLeeen of him alive. On Saturday
evening Me. Blake was'at the Central Telegraph
office, but as there was no light in the
Uhler Engineer's office he did not? go In.
The;: "Chief resided at No. 817 Filbert
street but was not at his house on
Or Sunday evenings . lt was not an
uPul.„ circumstance for him to slay away all
lufint,lint nothing was thought of it. This morn
ing,ahout seven o'clock Mrs. Elisabeth Hayes
entered the office for the purpose of cleaning it,
as Was liet custom every morning. She observed
thet'hief lying on the floor near the washstand,
with his head •On a spittoon. She called
Mr.'Wffiliontlittlard, an operator at the Central
Station, and he,in company with Detective War
nock, entered the office and found that the Chief
w" 4 0C'; The appearance of the corpse kit
cated,that he had died in a fit.
In left hand was a $l,OOO 7-30 bond, and on
3 w ungtio were : four similar bonds. last
had been talking about investing Early
some
money, and had probably purchased the bonds
just previous to his death.
The deceased was a native of this city, having
n born on Mai. :et stree Seventeenth,
an te was abont - 49 years of ag t,
e. n
H ear e
was a house
painter by trade., .He had always taken a promi
nent interest in the affairs of the Fire Depart
ment. He was a member of the Fairmount Fire
Company, and for many years had been its Presi
dent. This company has a very large membership,
and much of its success is due to the personal
exertions of Mr. Lyle. In 1860 he was elected
Chief Engineer of the Aire Department, and e&
tered upon his duties on the Ist of October in
that year. He was very popular among the
members of the Department, and has twice been
re-elected. His present term of office will expire
on the Ist of October, 1868. He had
expressed himself as a candidate for re-election,
and there is no doubt that he would have been
successful. He was very liberal in his expendi
tures for charitable purposes, and during the war
many wounded soldiers were indebted - to him
for little luxuries, At every signal for the fire
men's ambulances he was always ready, and ,no
man worked harder in getting the maimed men
comfortably into the ambulances. Anything
- which would tend to ameliorate the sufferings
of the wounded heroes was not wanting, and
Chief Lyle frequently bought whole boxes of
oranges and other luxuries to be distributed
among them. As an officer of the Department,
he was active and energetic, and to those hav
ing business with the office he was always
courteous and obliging. There is scarcely a
member of the Department who will not hear of
his sudden demise with much regret. When
companies from other towns and cities visited
the city, the Chief was always foremost in ex
tending to them a hearty welcome, and in
escorting them to all the places of interest in the
city. In that way he became well known
throughout the country, and his death will be
a source of regret to all. He was a single man,
and his only immediate relations are James Lyle
and General Peter Lyle, who was recently elected
Sheriff,and is now suffering with a broken leg.
The houses of the Hibernia and several other
fire companies have been draped in mourning in
memory of the deceased.
FATAL AccmirET.---While the Washington and
New York train was at Chester, on Friday
night, Dr. M. M. Mathews, of Rochester, N. Y.,
attempted to pass from the rear cars (which
come only to this city) to the: front ones, which
go through to New. York city, and having to
pass some sleeping cars, the train got under
considerable motion before he could reach the
rear of the front car, and in the attempt to get
on he Missed his hold and was thrown to the
grotufd, striking on the back of his head. The
train was stopped; he got up unaided and
walked to the car and got on, not supposing
himself seriously hurt. In a few minutes,
however, he showed symptoms of injury
of the brain, and in about twenty minutes
from the time of the fall he sank into
a comatose state. Dr. J. W. Dake, •of Albion,
N. Y., his traveling companion, brought him on
to this city, which th ey reached at IA . M., and
put up at the Girard House when Professors C.
J
Hering, C. G. Rano and J. C. Morgan were
called in, and rendered every assistance, but to
no purpose,tand at 5 P. 31. on Saturday he died,
having never spoken a word or made a volun
tary motion after first falling into coma. On
Saturday morning his wife was telegraphed for,
and arrived on Sunday morning, but to find her
husband.who parted from her T uesday last, dead;
and at 6.20, Sunday P. M. Dr. Doke and
the sorrowing widow left with the remains by
way of New York for Rochester, where they
will arrive on the day the doctor had anticipated
Teaching home in health.
An autopsy by Prof. A. R. Thomas revealed no
fracture of skull, but an effusion of blood be
neath the scalp behind the left ear, and a large
effused mass of blood on the brain above the re
glen of the right temple, while the cavity of the
Skull and spine was full of bloody fluid.
Mrs. Mathews loft Philadelphia -with warm
expressions of gratitude to the physicians, and
the proprietors and attaches of the Girard House,
for the kind attentions shown to her husband.
Dr. Mathews was one of the oldest and most
influential physicians of New York State, and
was known only to be loved. '
