Monaro Mercury 18th Nov 1898
TERRIBLE DEATH AT CADDIGAT
An old resident mutilated
On Wednesday, Mr. James Power Sen. Met his death in a terrible manner at Caddigat about 8 miles from Adaminaby. The deceased who lives at Caddigat was driving a waggonette to the Caddigat Creamery, when the horses bolted throwing him off the seat on to the pole of the vehicle. One leg became fixed between the circular piece and the swingle bar, and his body was dragged on the ground for a distance of about quarter of a mile when the horses ran across a log about 2 foot high. One of the deceased's legs going under the log got fast there and was almost torn out of the socket. The horses kept on their mad career until they came to a standstill, their course being tracked by quantities of blood, and portions of flesh which had been torn off the back and legs of deceased.
A son of Mr. Power witnessed the accident, but was unable to catch the horses or render any assistance. Dr. Cassidy of Adaminaby, was at once sent for, and did what he could for the sufferer; stitching his thigh and closing up the torn portion. It was quickly seen that there was no hope of recovery, the injuries being of so severe a nature. The unfortunate man was conscious almost to the last, and died at about 4 O'clock the same afternoon, in terrible agony. His groans, while being dresses, were pitiful to hear.
It appears that Mr. Power left Murrumbucca about a month ago to carry on the business of dairying with Mr. Mat Shanley, of Caddigat, and had just got his dairy in working order, with all crops in for feeding the cattle. He was well known on Monaro, and a highly respected, hard-working resident; and his sad end has caused much regret in the district. He is related to the family of Mr. West; his wife being a daughter of Mr. George Barrett, of Inglewood, near Adaminaby. He leaves a widow and nine children, most of whom are very young. At the time of his death one son accompanied him in the waggonette, and conveyed him home. He was 56 years of age at the time of his death. The funeral takes place at Adaminaby today. Much sympathy is expressed for Mrs. Power and family by the numerous residents of the district.
