name is unknown took on a bigger load
than he could carry away from the city
yesterday and he lay down to rest by
the side of the Macon, Dublin and Sa
vannah Railroad tracks just across the

the track to get some water. AS the
engine turned the curve the engineer saw
the PROSTATE form on the right of way.

pulled the cord and sounded the alarm.
The negro raised his head and peered out

skull. He was killed instantly, the top
of his head being broken in.
