KILLED IN HIS CAB
Engineer Watson Dashes Into
Loaded Flat Car.
S. A. [. Fast Mail Runs Into Car Loaded
With Railroad SiIIs Just Beyond
Crab rec.

Engineer James R. Watson was killed
yesterday morning at two o'clock just
north of this city, while running his
train on the Seaboard Air Line, as he
had been doing for many years.
The Seaboard Air Line fast mail train
from the south arrived in Raleigh at
1870 a. m, and Mr.. Watson took charge
of the engine. Just beyond Crabtree
bridge. two miles north of Raleigh,
there is sharp curve in the track.
When the train turned this curve, with
out warning the engine dashed into a
fiat car, loaded with railroad sills, which
was standing on the track. The heavy
timbers crashed through the engine, bat
tering to pieces the cab
1t seems that a fiat car loaded with
lumber had run out of the derailing
switch at Johnson street and down the
hill for two miles where it struck the
grade. After going up the grade for some
distance, gravity started it down the hill
again and it was then that it met Mr.
Watson's train on a sharp curve. AS the
two collided a large sill crashed through
the front window of the cab and struck
Mr.. Watson on the neck just below the
chin, breaking his neck and instantly
killing him. The fireman was bending
down Immediately in front of the fire
box and this protected him and saved his
life.
An engine was sent from Raleigh and
brought the mail train back to Raleigh.
The broken engine and the fiat car were
then brought to Raleigh and the mail
train carried out by another engine.
Mr.. James r. Watson was one of the
most faithful engineers on the road. His
body was brought here and carried to
his home, corner of Mcdowell and Lane
streets. He leaves wife, Mrs. Eliza
beth King W atson, who is a sister of
Mr.. D. NJ. King and Mrs. ]. B. Young,
and four children, Messrs. Archie V.
Watson, of Raleigh; John B. Watson, of
Harrisburg, Va; James Watson, and Miss
Elizabeth Watson.
Mr.. Watson was about 45 years old and
has been an employe of the Seaboard
Air Line all of his railroad life. He has
been an engineer for the past twenty
five or thirty years.
He was a consistent member of Eden
ton Street Methodist church
The funeral will be held this afternoon
at $50, from the residence, corner Lane
and Mcdowell streets
