The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1879-01-10

A gentleman named R. B. Lemos,
who arrived on the train from the west
yesterday afternoon, informed us that
a serious, If not fatal accident, befel a
man on Wednesday at water station
just west Of Evanston. The unfortu-
nate man was none other than E..F.
Byron, who has figured quite promi-
nently in Cheyenne, Denver and other
places as a dead beat. Our informant
states that Byron, who was stealing a
ride, by some Means fell upon the track,
one hind wheel of a west bound car
passing over his left leg, crushing it
frightfully. He vas otherwise injured,
it is supposed internally. The mangled
man was picked up at nee and placed
in the car. Mr.. Lemos informed. us
that when be left Evanston it was cur
rently reported that a telegram had
been received that Byron had died from
the effects Of his wounds. For the
truth of this latter statement Mr..
Lemos could not vouch, as the train
containing Byron proceeded on Its
westward journey soon after the acct
dent occurred.
