THE ACCIDENT AT RocKL1N.-A CORE
spondent, writing from Rocklin, says: "a
Coroners inquest was held here on the body
of the late A. NJ. Bybee, who was killed in
the railroad yard at this place, as heretofore
noted in the RECORD UNION. After hearing
all the evidence in the case, the jury returned
!, verdict of accidental death. Mr.. Bybee
was in the employ of the Central Pacific Rail
road Company at this place. He had occa-
sion to 90 into the yard and make coupling
between an engine and caboose, at the same
time the yard engine was coming up the next
track, and in some unaccountable way the
deceased fell III frontof it and was taken nearly
100 feet before the engine was stopped.
His death was almost instantaneous, as bis
head was nearly severed from his body. No
blame is attached to the engineer, as he was
on the opposite side of the engine looking
back for signals: nor to any other employee of
the company, as the accident was by careless
ness on the part of deceased There were
few witnesses of the occurrence. among the
number being conductor Willard and
Division Master Mechanic NJ. w. Cooley.
who first notified the engineer that
anything was wrong. Although a new
conner, Mr.. Bybee had large number of
friends, who sincerely sympathize with his
relatives in their deep affection st his I'M
timely death. His wife and brother.iu-law,
J. G. Day, will take the body East for in
terment."
