NEGRO KILLED
BENEATH ENGINE
AT SHOPS TODAY

This morning at o'clock Hector
Gilchrist, colored man, was crushed
to death beneath an engine at the A.
c. L. Shops, death coming instantly
With some other workmen, Gil
christ was at work on the engine,
which had been lacked up for the
purpose of putting on new tires. 1t
appears that one of the jacks settled
more in the sand that the others, and
as a result the engine toppled and
turned over, pinning Gilchrist be-
meath it, death coming instantly.
Other men at work on the engine
were beneath it in the pit, and were
unhurt, but Gilchrist had just gone
outside to adjust rod, when the en-
CINE suddenly turned over, with the
fatal result.
Gilchrist lived on Teaspoon Hill.
and was well thought of by his race
and his employers. who greatly regret
the accident.
