THE TE frre
Confession of i Fiend.
In the spring of 1868 several serions
accidents occurred on the ling of the
Deleware division of the Erie railway, |.
in one of which—the Carr's Rock-dis-
aster, on the 15th of April in that
year-—more than a score of passengers
lost their lives, and fifty or sixty others
were wounded. In each of these cases
the track had been maliciously dis-
placed, but all the efforts of the eom-
pany to ferret out the perpetrators
proved futile, and finally a standing
reward of one thousand. dollars was
offered for any evidence that would
lead to their conviction.
A short time before the occurrence
of these disasters, the company dis.
charged from their employ and caused
the arrest of an Eoglishman, John
Bowen, sixty-four years of age. for
forging a pay roll. * Bowen has been
in this country for tweaty two, years,
and has resided in the neighborhood of
Sparrowbush and Rosa's Switch for
several years past,
On Monday last he made the follow-
ing confession :
I reside in Orange county. I have
read the Bible, and prayed lately, and
hope to get some of my sins pardencd.
[ may not live long, and don’t like to
to die with so much on my conscience.
I wish to lighten ita little.
About between summer and fall,
three yedrs ago, on the Erie railway,
between the Delaware bridge, at Saw
Mill Rift, and Kennedy's Cut, I" was
going along—I was not working for
the company—one day, and I kicked
a stone from the middle of the road to
the edge of the track agamst a chair;
there it lodged. I didn't’ think it
would do any damage, but it did, it
| started two or three cars off the track:
| Some time in February, one year ago,
there was a crooked rail at Rosa's
switc¢h near the chair,
I took a piece of iron and pushed the
rail out of the chair, and raised ‘it up
and put a spike under it at the bended
pace on asecond quarter tie ; I shoved
it. back into the chair, but it'wouldn’t
go in without something heavy to force
it in; I left it at that, and along came |
a freight train and, broke it off, and the
train ran down the bank. About the
15th a year agodast: March, ( April) at
three o'clock in the’ morning, 1' came
and had been at Lackawaxen ; I went
to see about a silver mine I had burn-
ing out there.
my foot, which hurt me and so'I walks
slowly down the track until I came to
{ Carr's Rock, a freight train passed
there (going west), I stepped aside till
it passed ; I saw on the riverside a rail
érooked which . was working up. and
down as the train passed. |
I took a piece of the cap off & rail
and tried to fix it as well as I could. I'
shoved the rail out of the chair and put
a block under it to raiseit; I put a
spike under a quartertiein order to
make it come to its place again. 1
didn’t think it was going to do any
damage at all, I traveled on from half
a thile to three-quarters down the track
when I heard & great tivike. I thought:
it. was the totes | slipping ' down ‘into’
the water; instead of the stones it was’
afrain going east; and in two or three
dilys I heard it was a/train instead -
shqnes. >
That was the Cir a Hock etabiing!
I felt very sorry from that time to this;
singe I have been here I don't sleep. at,
nights. I was not then in the employ |
| of the Erie company ; before any of the
occurrences I had been employed by
the Erie company, ahd ‘had been ‘dis-
charged by the company and seit * to
jail under a charge of forgery. I
knew when I put the spike under that
rail, but if a train had come from’ the
east it would have drove it down. IT
train was coming.
