O. brakeâ€" man who had his hand so badly smashâ€" ed between the couplings of a freight car on Monday morning that he lost the hand, as noted in Monday‘s Advance, is reported as making favourable proâ€" gress to recovery. Mr, McLean was brakeman on the T. N. O. branch from Porquis Junction to Timmins and was on duty on the way freight.

He was rushed to the Anâ€" son General hospital at Iroquois Falls, where medical aid and every possible care and attention were given the inâ€" Jured man. Later in the day it was found necessary to operate on him. Alâ€" though his condition was quite low when he was first admitted to the hosâ€" pital, and he had lost a large amount of blood, he showed steady improveâ€" ment at the hospital. At the time of writing this, reports from the hospital are to the effect that his condition had greatly improved and that he is now reported as doing favourably. Mr. McLean is resident at Englehart. He is a married man with one child. NINETYâ€"NINE PUNCHEOARDS PICKED UP AT ROUYN, QUEBEC Monty McLean at Hospital at Ansonville.
