Where Engineer Logan
Lost His Life.
Phantom Train Dashes Down
Steep Grade.
Frightful Wreck Re-enacted Every
Nisht-Strange Story.


The iil-fated train, on which En-,
gineer Alex. w. Logan lost his life
is said to haunt the bridge over TIL,
River Styx near Rittman.
It was at this place that he went te
his heroic death last spring. The
lfrightful wreck caused great excite.
ment in this city. There were a
large number of Akron people on No
that morning. Local citizens re.
call the circumstances surrounding
the brave sacrifice made by Engineer
Logan, whose steady nerve saved
the passengers behind him.
That which follows is taken from
the Wadsworth Banner of Friday:
Several Rittman people are very
much excited at what has occurred
at the Styx bridge over the Erie at
that place during the past week, and
what they term was the appearance g
of a phantom train.
The first appearance of this awe
inspiring, marvellous apparition, was
on Saturday night, and was wit
messed by DR.. Faber and a compan-
ion. The doctor had been out east
to visit patient and was leisurely
driving along about ii O'Clock when
his attention was attracted by the
noise of swiftly moving train. He
casually watched the train and saw
its glaring headlight and dense
clouds of smoke rolling up from the
smokestack.
No particular attention was taken
of the train, but just before it reached
the bridge the .shrill whistle of the
engine caused the men to glance
back. On came the train with the
speed of the wind as il swept down
the grade, throwing out great streaks
of fire from the wheels. Just thsn
was heard the "chuck, chuck" of the
engine, as if she had been reversed.
On further investigation frightful
sight met their gaze. The train was
enveloped in great clouds Of dust
and smoke and huge flames of fire
shot up in every direction, and i'm
mense volumes of steam making a
terrific noise shot up from the en-
gine, and the noise of creaking tim
hers and breaking iron bars was
plainly heard, but above all came the
skrieks of those pinioned beneath
the wreckage. The noise was plain
ly heard by a number of others.
Spellbound at the sight before them
Faber and his companion started
Immediately for the railroad, think
ing that frightful wreck had oc-
Cured. Imagine their surprise
when they reached the bridge and
found everything perfectly quiet, no
sign of a wrecked train, and not even
a ripple upon the placid surface of
the Styx.
The men buried to town and re-
lated their experience, but could not
induced anyone else to visit this
spot, 80 strong is the belief down
there that this place is haunted or
that some evil spirit fingers about
this bridge. Near there the Inflated
train s jumped the track last spring
and the engineer was killed, ever
since which time many people have
been afraid to pass over this stretch
of track after night.
