and Marietta railroad, short distance
north of the depot at this place last
Friday morning, V. E. Harkins, the
Belle Valley merchant, stepped onto a
stone while running along the side of
the train and was thrown to the ground.
In falling his right foot came in con-
tact with wheel of a box car which
crushed the bottom of the member to
such an extent as to necessitate ampu-
tation. He was picked up and taken to
w. w. Ackley's room at the residence
of Mrs Ella Ijams, where DIR. o. o. Nc
Kee, assisted by Drs. Martin, Finley
and Andrus, amputated the foot at the
instep. The patient remained in Mr..
Ackley's room until Saturday after
noon, when he was taken to his home
at Belle Valley, where he is now resting
as easily and comfortable as could be
expected. The sympathy of the people
at this place and community goes out
to Mr.. Harkins, whose injuries might
have been much worse. and his expe.
rience should be warning to all who
attempt to get aboard moving train.
Not only should it be warning, but in
the future any or all persons attempt
ing to get onto moving trains should
be arrested and heavily fned.-Cald
