Just How She EscaDed.

"Early in the '60s 1 was railroad tele-
graph operator down in Georgia." said he,
"and l had mighty narrow escape from
being lynched one day. 1t was in the after
noon. A gang of darkies came along to
where my station was, about three miles
from any human habitation. They had in
their grasp beautiful young white girl,
and they had tied her fast to one rail of the
track, right before my eyes. They then
stood there, and pointing revolvers at my
head said if l interfered in any way they
would murder me- Five minutes before
the Atlantic express was due they departed,
leaving the girl on the track to be cut in
two by the train. l was in terrible sus-
pense knew would be called coward
and a cur if 1 allowed that girl to be killed,
but was afraid to signal the train to stop,
because knew the darkies would kill me
if did.
"But was going to save my position any
how Just as the train passed my signal
station ran down the track and with u
pair of pliers cut the wire connecting the
signal to the station. By doing this
thought could tell the railroad officials
that the vandals had cut the wire so that
could not signal the train. See the fine
point? Well, while was cutting the wire
the wind came up suddenly and blew per-
feet tornado. Big oak trees were blown
over so that their tops touched the ground,
and I had to hang on to the track SO that
wouldn't be blown away. Well when went
up the track saw those darkies running
away and supposed that the girl had
been cut in two. 1 was prepared to look
upon terrible sight, but to my great joy
and utter astonishment she was still alive.
1 cut the rope with my pliers and released
her. carried her tenderly up to the sig
nal station, bound up the gashes made in
her limbs by the rope, and"-
"And what?" asked somebody.
"And 1 asked her to be my wife"
"What did she say?"
"She thanked me for my bravery and
softly murmured: YES"
"But how was it the train didn't kill
her?"
81 never found out until two years after
ward. Then l met the engineer of that
very train. He explained to me that just
as the train was about to strike the girl
that heavy gust of wind came along 1t
was so powerful that it lifted one side of
the train over, making it run on one rail
for about 500 feet befor it fell back on the
other rail. 1t so happened that the girl
was tied to the rail from which the wheels
raised, and that's how she escaped. Phil
