Both Legs Crushed Off.

On last Friday evening Lem
Webb of Straitsville, aged 80 years,
had both legs cut off in the G. H.
V. d I. yard here, by a freight.
He had been attending the fair in
our town and when starting home
In the evening, took the wrong
train and was let off in the lower
end of the yard. In walking back
to the depot he stepped from one
track to avoid a passenger train
and walked in front the freight
which was moving SO rapidly that
the engineer by all in his power
could not stop the train. The en-
gine knocked the old man down
and run over both legs at the ank-
les. Both feet were entirely sew
cred from the limbs. Drs. Camp
bell, Dye and Pullen were immedi-
ately summoned and dressed the
wounds. At present writing, Mr..
Webb is improving and will proba-
bly, recover. 1t is very unfortunate
that man so up in years should
lose both feet. The engineer can
hardly be blamed, for he did all in
his power to avoid the accident.
