About $50 o'clock last even
inc Charles j. Fl. Beckett was
killed by a train near Land
18th Station on the p. w. d
Railroad. Mr.. Beckett was
struck near Landlith by train
No. 1877 south bound, which is
due in this city at $50 o'clock.
The train was stopped at Land
18th and the body removed
from beneath the trucks of one
of the cars and laid upon the
station platform. The station
in this city was notified and
John Barnard, the Waterman
at the plant of the Wilmington
Mills Manufacturing Company
notified the police. AS anoth-
er portion of the body was
found near SheIIpot it is not
known exactly where he was
struck. An express train north
bound passed near the point
where the body was found and
the trailmen are of the opin-
ion that he STEPPED from in front
of this train. directly i'll front
of the other. Coroner Prick
has been notified and will hold
AN inquest to determine the
fact. of the case. No arrange
mcnts for the funeral have yet
been made.
One of the passengers on the
train said last night that when
the train left Edge Moor they
heard IA sound under the train
as though the air brake was
loose. 1t was some time before
the train was stopped, and by
that time Landlith had been
reached. Here a portion. OF the
body was found under the
truck of one of the passenger
cars. None of the train men
knew how or where exactly
Mr.. Beckett had been struck.
Mr.. Beckett leaves a widow
and one son, Chas. !. Beckett.
Ii was stated late last night
that Mr.. Beckett probably got
of'a south bound train at Edge
Moor and was walking along
the tracks to reach the home Of
Edward Donahoc when he was
struck. He had purchased
vegetables from Mr.. Donahoe
for eighteen years. and sent
word to him yesterday that he
would visit him and spend last
night with him. 1t is supposed
he was on his way to visit Mr..
Donahoe when he was killed.
About 6 o'clock last even
ing Charles |. Beckett, his son
was surprised to receive a pack
age containing the watch and
pen-knifc carried by his father
when he left. About the same
time word was received of the
death of an unknown man at
LandIith and the statement
was made that he carried II
book which contained the name
of Mr.. Beckett. Thinking
that Mr.. Beckett might be
able to furnish ii clue to the
identity of the man a reporter
called at the Beckett restaurant
and finding Mr.. Beckett was
absent, asked his son if he
could furnish Il clue to the
identity of the man, not sup
