Mr.. Edison recently as he sat in his
laboratory in Orange, N. j., when I

TRAGIC DEATH o.
FATHER MICHAEL BOYCE
New Richmond, Wis. pastor killed
by passing train while attempt
ing to escape injury.
Beloved pastor is mourned by entire
community. Was loved by
Catholics and Non Catho-
lies alike.
New Richmond Wis. News gives q
full account of tragic occurrence
Was generally known in
Wisconsin.

The Reverend Father Michael E.
Boyce, pastor Of the Church of the
Immaculate Conception. was instant
" killed by an Omaha locomotive on
the West Second street crossing In
Ne wRichmond.. Wis. at s o'clock
Monday afternoon.
He was proceeding west in his
automobile and did not hear the
train, a southbound extra freight. I'M
til it was almost upon him. Then he
endeavored to stop his car, and fail
ing in that he started to jump. That
was his fatal error. He fell before
the pilot of the engine, the wheels
passed over him and he was dragged
mofe than half block before the
train which was proceeding at a pace
variously estimated to be from five
to seven miles an hour by the train
men, was brought to halt.
Father Boyce was alone in his
auto. He passed the N. & R.-V. Of
flee at about his usual speed. The
writer was sitting at his desk and
glanced up from his work as Father
Boyce went by. He always drove at
a conservative pace, and apparently
he was doing as he never failed to
do in the scores of times the writer
has ridden with him, slowed up as he
approached the crossing to look out
for possible danger. With him it was
"safety first" in all things.
A train was passing, but knowing
full well Father Boyce's careful driv-
ing we thought he had stopped and
was waiting for it to pass by.
The train made an emergency stop.
A moment later people were run
ming toward the railroad track.
Someone had met with an accident,
but even then we could not believe
that anything had happened to Faith
er Boyce until we clambered over the
train and saw his wrecked automo-
bile beside the track pointed north
ward.
Then we looked under his car,
hoping to find him there and that he
had merely been injured.
No sign of him there.
Then we went along the train

through eleven years there, and came
out as sound as he went in"

thinking that father" and papa"
were always synonymous. always
called him Papa" Boyce, and it ap-
parently pleased the dead priest
greatly.
Father Boyce was born in Ireland
and his clerical experiences have
been on three continents. He was
born in County Donegal. Nov. 9Th.
1864. He began his classical studies
at the diocesan seminary of Raphoe
under the present Cardinal Logue
and finished the classics and philoso-
ply at the Holy Ghost college in
Pittsburg, Pa, having come to this
country in 1881 with his family. In
1884, Father Boyce went to France
and was ordained to the priesthood
in Paris, Nov. 1, 1887. by His Emf
nence. Cardinal Richard. archbishop
of Paris.
The first three years of his min
istry were devoted to the evangelical
ton of the west coast of Africa, his
operations being in Sierra Leone, an
English colony commonly called by
them, "the white mans grave" The
deadly fevers forced him to retire
from the mission field, and he re-
turned to his alma mater, the Pitts
burg Catholic college, where he
taught the classics for three years.
From there he was transferred to
missions in Wisconsin, first to Chip
pewa Falls in 1895, then to Superior
in 1898 and lastly to New Richmond,
spending here the last fourteen years
of his ministry. Besides English,
Father Boyce spoke French and Irish
f1uently, and had what he loosely
called passing knowledge" of
Latin, Greek and German.
Father Boyce is survived by two
brothers and two sisters, Frank
Boyce, Miss Mary Boyce and Mrs.
Ellen Doran of East Pittsburg, and
Daniel Boyce of FAINT, County Don
egal, Ireland, and a nephew, James
Boyce, who has made his home here
with Father Boyce practically all of
the time of late years when not at
tending school. In fact he had just
departed for Omaha, where he in
tended to enter school, two hours be-
fore Father Boyce's death. James
Boyce has four sisters and two broth
ers in East Pittsburg, nieces and
nephews of Father Boyce, all of
whom feel deeply his untimely taking

Mrs. John e. Glover, Mrs. L. A.
Baker and Karl B. Van Meter were
on the west side Of track on Harry

Boyce approach and they endeavored
by signals to warn him of his dan

in time or did not think they were
intended for him. The three were

lips. They saw Father Boyce drive
by and saw all that could be seen
from that side, of what happened af-
forwards. They saw him either at
tempt to jump or thrown from his
car by the force of the collision with
the locomotive. They declare en-
phatically that the bell on the loco
motive was not ringing, thoguh the
engine was making considerable
noise, pulling grade with a heavy
train.
The entire party was completely
unnerved by what they saw.
During conversation with Father
Rice only last week, Father Boyce
expressed it as his wish that he be
buried in Ireland, and while this may
not be feasible now, it may come
about after few months. 1t all de-
ponds on how his brothers and sisters
feel about it. Father Boyce also ex-
pressed the desire to go to Ireland
when he retired, and there spend his
days in a small cottage in retirement.
Father Rice also expressed it of
his own knowledge that Father Boyce
died possessed of small portion of
this worlds goods. His philan-
thropies were numerous, and his sup
port of church missions took a great
deal of his income so that he saved
very little each year.
Father Boyce." said Father Rice,
twas an outspoken man. You always
knew where he stood. He never beat
around the bush. He led priestly
life, one of which he could we'll be
proud. Whatever faults he had were
of the surface, they were not of the
heart. He was good hearted. One
of his characteristics was his love for
the children. He felt he was sort
of guardian to all of them and felt an
almost parental interest in them.
Father Boyce possessed a mag
nificent physique. For eleven years
he served as a missionary in North
ern Africa, where an ordinary priest
spent two years and then came home
