due to leave at S:l5, was to depart from |
the station. The yard train was shunt |
ing and shifting cars about that section /
Of the yard near the square. The train /
by extending across the square. impeded /!
the pathway to the station. Mrs Greg I
ware attempted to pass one end of the 4
train by going up the tracks about l
rod or so. She lost her footing and fell |
onto the tracks. II was Just then that /
the train began to back. Brakeman |
Gray, who was standing at his post by /
one of the yard switches. Immediately I
dashed across the tracks and lifted her 4

we're eye witnesses OF the scene. the ac-
eident might have been of grave con
sequences had it not been for the timely /
of Brakeman Gray.
