Scale works crossing on the Bellows Falls
division of the Rutland railroad in this

o'clock when she was struck by the
morning passenger train from the east.
The dying woman was taken to the de-
pot on the train which struck her and
the Stearns ambulance was summoned,
the woman expiring about the time the
train rolled into the station. The re-
mains were later moved from the Stearns
to the Clifford undertaking rooms.
Mr.. Hartney, who was summoned from
his work at the shop, said that his wife
was probably on her way uptown to do
some shopping when she met with the
accident. 1t is stated that Mrs. Hartney
was standing on siding near a point
where it meets the main line nearly op-
posite the scale works entrance and that
as the train approached she apparently
became confused and stepped in front of
the locomotive. She received a heavy
blow on the side of the head near the |
right temple and bruise on the shoulder
and her right hand was cut off. The |
wheels missed her body except the hand
