man who stuck to the car was the least
injured, as he lost only two teeth.

ton. He was hurled along over a lot
of broken stones. and finally his head
hit the station platform and his skull
was crushed. Burns was a member OF
the construction gang which had NOV
ed the car to the tracks and had ac'
copied the invitation to ride on the
first trip.
Among those severely hurt was John
Qunyle. a car inspector of Orange.
His left arm was shattered, and he
was so badly hurt internally he is not
