SERIOUS ACCIDENT - Yesterday afternoon, as Mr. Myrick Bradley, of this city, was overseeing the raising of a monument in Oakwood Cemetery, the derrick fell, and its large iron ring struck him on the skull, causing a bad fracture. After recovering from the first shock, Mr. B. walked a considerable distance, then took to the street car, and on reaching Fayette street, walked to the office of Doctor Pease, on Montgomery. On examination of the wound, trepaning(?) was found to be necessary, and the operation was performed by Dr. Pease, assisted by Drs. Mercer and Searle. - Mr. Bradley is 80 years of age, and one of our best citizens. The wound is a very serious one.

A few days since we mentioned the circumstance of an accident to Myrick Bradley, and old and respected resident, who was struck on the head by a broken hook from the tackle of a derrick, while he was assisting in erecting a monument to his departed wife. The accident proved fatal, and Mr. Bradley died yesterday, the 6 inst., about 12 o'clock. The deceased was born in New Haven, Conn., in 1788, and came to the town of Skaneateles in 1806. His first wife was Mary Colvin, sister of Doctor, David and Frank Colvin, and his second wife, who survives him, was Mary Bennett, of Camillus. He removed to the town of Salina, near Liverpool, in 1840, where he has since resided. The deceased was greatly respected among his fellow citizens. He was unpretending in his manners, but very cordial, honest and upright, and leaves a wide circle of friends and acquaintances to mourn his loss.
Funeral from his late residence, No. 139 East Genesee Street, Thursday, at 1 o'clock P. M.
