FARM HAND KILLED ON GREAT
-2' WESTERN TRACKS,.

The lifeless body OF John Godfrey.
q young man who had been working
for D. w. Barr, was found along the
tracks Of the Chicago Great Western
railroad last Friday afternoon,
about half way between the stations
OF Boyd and McIntire. Mr.. Godfrey
purchased ticket at the Manches-
ter & Oneida railway company q sta
|tion in this city on Wednesday after
noon, and boarded the afternoon
train for Minneapolis. On Friday ev-
ening word was received here that
the body Of the young man had been
found along the tracks. How he
came to his death remains mye-
terry. On his person were found a
note book with his name, and the
ticket which he purchased in this
city. The ticket showed that he
boarded the train on the Great
Western at Oneida, as a part OF the
ticket had been taken up by the
conductor. That he missed his
train at Oelwein and later boarded a
freight train for Minneapolis, and
fell off, Is one theory advanced as
a possible means by which he met
instant death. -. r. s.ss4 ~.
The home Of the young man was
Midtown, Wisconsin, where his faith
er and near relatives reside. He al
so has a sister residing in Minneapo-
Ills. ...- @,,5- &.&-' g. ~ -''.
