found mutilated and lifeless in the
railroad yards here, on Saturday
night about 1880. 1t is supposed
that engine No. CSC, being the only
engine moving in the yards at the
time, is the one that ran over him,
but everything concerning the acci-
dent is shrouded in mystery. 1t was
dark and the engine must have been
coming up behind him and moved
him down without warning.
The accident occurred near the
switch stand outside the switch
shanty. What he was doing IN the
yards at the time, and whether he
has a wife or family, can not be as
certained, but he has friends in Abb
lene, Texas, and. Rocky Ford, Colo.
Whether they are relatives or ac-
quaintances is also unknown. He
had been advised to stay in a deaf
and dumb institute, but short-sighted
pride, stubbornness or independence
forced him to this place, where such
a terrible fate awaited him,
