OF Fred Cupper of Shakopee was
saved by the presence of mind of the
station agent and telegraph operator
at Merriam Junction, who held him
close to the ground while the freight
train which had mangled the toes of
his right foot rumbled on. Cupper
was working at Merriam Junction and
slipped between the platform and the
rails while trying to board a freight
train. The train ran over the toes of
his right foot, and in his pain the
writhing man would surely have rolled
beneath the wheels of the passing
train had not the agent and operator,
who saw him fall. reached down from
the platform and held him close to
the ground outside the rails until the
train passed. Cupper was taken to
Shakopee.
