De soro CITIZEN MEETS DEATH
Acciasntiy Killed on Burlington Road in
Illinois

John Hickok of Ferryville, was ac-
cidently killed at Banding, Illinois, last
Thursday. He was employed on the
Burlington works of double tracking,
and at the time of the accident was en-
gagged in shoveling gravel under high
bank, which gave away and came
crashing down, burying him to the
wal. in heavy earth and stones that
crushed and bruised him frightfully.
Fellow workmen hurriedly extricated
the injured man, and promptly con-
veyed him by train to the Galena hos
pital, but he never recovered conscious
ness and died within an hour after
reaching the hospital. Death was due
to an ugly wound at the base of the
brain. The bereaved mother and child
rem were notified by wire and the re-
main shipped home, Sunday they were
conveyed to this village where the fun
e=sl was held from the Methodist church,
Pastor James officiating.
Deceased was son of Mrs. l.. G.
Hickok of this village and sad strange
fact is that this is the third son that
this good old woman has seen suffer a
violent death. Fully SO years ago Cecil,
the eldest son, was drowned in the river
near here at the age of seven; and it
was but little more than three months
ago that her youngest son, Gould. was
killed by passenger train while flag
ging on the Burlington not far from the
place where John met his death. Truly.
this poor, aged mother is deserving of
all the abundant sympathy that this
community is pouring out to her.
John Helbert Hickok was born in De-
Soto, 1858 He was married to Eary
E. kolfe. He leaves to mourn his loss
a wife and eight children. De Soto
