CALDWELL, July 1S.-John Turner, a
Rock Island brakeman was run over by
the cars here, and it is thought fatally
hurt. He was doing the work of another
man coupling cars in the yard, when in
some manner he was knocked to the
ground beneath a moving train, two cars
of which passed over him, almost cutting
him in two near the lower part of his
body.
He was terribly mangled and it is said
it is impossible for him to recover, al
though strange to say he has not been
unconscious since the accident. His
home is in ST. Joe and his regular run
was between that place and here. He is
80 years old and has a wife and two chill
dren in comfortable circumstances.
