women, Mrs. Vincent of Olivier
and Mrs. Fl. j. Walker and he
six year old son from this tow
who met their death in so tragic
manner Thursday of last week a
Olivier station. were buried her,
the day following, in the famil,
burying ground. They were The
daughters of the late Ursin Oil
vier who died in December last.
The engineer and conductor OF
the train that killed those persons
were arrested and jailed at New
Iberia.
Mrs. Vincent was killed outright
Mrs. Walker lived about half an
hour, and the child about two
hours. They were horribly man.
gled. The horse that was hitched
to their carriage was killed and
the carriage put in fragments.
The following details are taken
from the New Iberia Enterprise:
A terrible accident occurred last
Thursday, at Olivier station on
the Southern Pacific Railroad in
which two women and child lost
their lives. There is in that Wei
nifty large population of bright
skinned colored people who in the
days of slavery were free and
themselves ve-hoDders; they are
a thrifty, intelligent people, who
are we'll thought of by the white
people, and it is to this class that
the victims belonged. One was
Mrs, Joseph Vincent and the other
Mrs. Joseph Walker and child, a
boy about six years old. They
were returning home from New
Iberia and entered the lane lead
ing to the small depot building at
Olivier, just as Supt. W. F. Ow-
ems special train of two" coaches
was coming along. Persons living
near the station noticed that the
women were driving at a rapid
gait toward the railroad crossing,
while the train was coming toward
them from the west at very fast
rate. The buggy continued up
the grade of the crossing and rea-
ched the track just in time to be
struck 10y the locomotive in such
a manner As to kill the occupants
and the horse, while tue buggy
was broken into hundred small
pieces. The train was checked up
rs fast as could be done and back |
eel to the scene of the disaster
There being still signs of life in
the unfortunate victims, Supt. |
Owens ordered the train to jean
erette to procure medical aid, but |
heir injuries were such that they |
lived but a few minutes. DIR. l..
A. Burgess, Coroner, assisted by
Sheriff {. L. Cade, held the in
quest. The Coroner's jury re-
urned a verdict that the victims
,ame to their death through the
,arelessness of the engineer of the
rain, and Coroner Burgess Or
Tered Sheriff Cade to arrest him.
The train having remained at the
tation throughout the inquest.
Sheriff Cade boarded it and the
ngineer, Mr.. j. S. Cunningham.
vas placed under arrest. Supt.
ovens requested that Mr.. Gun
ngham be allowed to take the
rain through to New Orleans.
This was granted and Mr.. Owens
leputized to take charge of the
