been that the freight was under such
Roadway that she could not stop in
time"
Shortly after the collision occurred
flames began to burst from the wrecked
freight cars. Two alarms on the fire
bells were hurriedly sounded and the
whole fire department of Cambridge re-
sponded promptly and soon put out the
flames. Members Of the police force
also appeared and order began to be
evolved out Of chaos. Then the work
of rescuing the dead and injured was
begun. The windows OF the rear car
had to be broken in and portion oil
the side cut through in order to reach
them. Tho station was turned into an
emergency hospital, to which those
taken from the wreck were removed
and cared for Ono by one the dead
bodies were brought in and placed upon
the floor. 0Iangled by the crash of
timbers, scalded by steam and black
ened bv fire, they presented sickening
appearances, The groans OF the injured
and the cries OF those who were search
ing for missing friends and relatives
added to tho horrors OF the scene.
The faces OF the dead were reverently
covered over with cloths, which from
zine to time were lifted in order that
searchers might have an opportunity OF
identifying them. Most Of those on the
passenger train were residents OF places
on the line OF the Watertown branch
and nearly all OF them were working
people. .,
twill be q difficult matter to identify
some of the dead. Some are burned to
a crisp, others frightfully mangled and
one SO badly cut up that unless identi-
tication can be made by the clothing,
lie, for it was man, may finally rest
in an unmarked grave.
