in the death of w. 81. Fisher, of Ellis.
Mr.. Fisher was brakeman on the
freight going west and at Ogallah was
told by the conductor to cut the train
loose preparatory to running in on the
switch. The young man attempted to
operate the air brake between the cars
and by some means lost his hold and
fell underneath the moving train, which
passed over both legs, mangling him
frightfully. He was taken to Ellis and
both limbs were amputated, but he died
shortly afterwards. He is spoken of as
an exemplary young man and was much
respected. He was, weare informed, en-
gagged to be married, in couple of weeks
to young lady in Ellis.
