Seymour Jones, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Freeman Jones, living near No
lin. was killed by freight train SOME
time close to midnight last night, by
being run over Just this side of Nolin
station. From all indications young
Jones had sat down on the track while
partly drunk, and was struck by
freight train No. 1853, which was fol-
lowing close behind No. 3, the west
bound passenger.
As No. 6, the morning eastbound
passenger train, was passing Noln
this morning the trainmen noticed the
mutilated remains of a man scattered
along the track. The train was stop
ped and the section boss at Nolin no.
titled to watch the remains until the
arrival of Coroner Folsom. That Of
ficial was informed of the discovery
soon after the passenger reached this
pace. He left on the westbound pas
senger for the scene, and returned on
freight early this afternoon.
According to Mr.. Folsom the body
was found beside the track, about
| 400 .y,rds this side of Nolin. Beside
the track was! also an unbroken bottle
| of beer with a corkscrew. From the
| footprints and other evidence 1t is be-
lieved that young Jones was sitting on
| the track in a drunken condition
when the freight train struck him.
