Buried in a well.
--A man named Christian Arut was recently buried alive in a well on the farm of George Harmon, in Bainbridge, Mich. He was being lowered into the well by a windlass, for the purpose of examining the curbing, which was somewhat decayed. When at the depth of forty feet, (the well is seventy feet deep,) he called to those above to draw him up, as the curbing was giving away beneath him. They began to raise him up, and almost immediately a part of the curbing above him caved in, filling the tub and taking it down with such force as to break one arm of the windlass. The other arm caught in the clothing of a boy working it, and threw him clear over the shaft, several feet away. The whole well finally caved in from the very top. The whole neighborhood was aroused, and every effort was being made to recover the body of the unfortunate man, but without success.
