making their escape early In the even

a mans leg, which had been severed
just below the knee, was found dang

the limb Of a colored man and investi.
cation revealed that the porter Of
the train was missing. From the blood
on the wheels and trucks 1t was found
that he had met his death between
the baggage and coal cars.
One Of the porter's duties is to flag
the train over the c. s. railroad cross
ing in Trinidad and the supposition is
that he had crawled up on top Of the
passenger coaches and was on his way
to the engine, preparatory to Tagging
the crossing and when attempting to
leap down from the top Of the baggage
car to the tender, fell beneath the
wheels. There could be no other rea
son for the porter being on that part
of the train. There happened to be
a switchman at the railroad crossing
SO the train did not stop at that point.
A switch engine was near the depot
when the leg was found and was i'm

which were found about a mile up the
track, dreadfully mangled by the
