Georgetown College Student
Describes Accident to Com

Badly unnerved and shaken from
his experience Sunday night, Thomas
r. Welch, a senior medical student at
Georgetown University, when ar
raigned in Central Police Court, Balti-
more. yesterday afternoon. told
graphic story Of the killing of a fell
low student, Peter D. Byrne of Chi
cago, and a narrow escape from like
fate for himself, while riding on a
train OF the Pennsylvania railroad.
Welch resides at 219 street.
Welch paid a fine of $26.45 in the
police court on the charge of unau-
thoriZed riding on the train. New
testimony. however, was brought out
later to the effect that the boys were
[ prepared to pay their fare and a new

, WEIGH stated that he and Byrne had
boarded a train here Sunday night to
see some girl friends Off and when
attempting to leave found the train
had already started. The conductor
offered to put them off Bowie. but,
fearing that they would be unable
to make accommodations there for
the night or to obtain a train back
to the city, Byrne. who had some

to Baltimore.
Walking to the day coach. Byrne step

cautioned him to be careful and come
back. AT that moment, Welch stated,
the door slammed shut behind them.

ling, with only a few inches of space as
a foothold. they grimly hung on as the
train sped rapidly toward Baltimore
meanwhile trying to attract some ones
attention to help them from their pre-
fcarious position.
At Winans' crossing, where the tracks
iof the Pennsylvania pass under those of
the Baltimore and Ohio through mar
lrow concrete culvert, Byrne, whose
body protruded from the side of the
coach, crashed against the bulkhead, his
fbody being crushed and mangled, the
ryoungster suffering instant death.
Welch said he was holding on to
the hand-rod supports with his back
to the coach and facing Byrne. who
was holding to the same rods and
swinging out beyond Welch, his toes
just touching the bottom step.
Il felt Byrne's body pressed up
against mine violently, and the next
instant he was gone" said Welch.
Beating madly upon the closed door,
jWelch finally succeeded in attract

Ephraim NJ. Adams. just as the train
WAS about to pass under the Fred

trouble and anxiety.
'Old-time affection and family
pride were awakened. with the re-
suit that the brothers and sisters
offered to stand by until the man
was able to leave the hospital and
go back to work. The property was
saved. the twelve-year-old boy was
kept at school. the mothers anxieties
relieved and the different branches
took time and no little negotiation
and tact on the part of the social
worker. No money was spent for
relief. but the highest kind of service
Many persons think Of the Asso-
ciated Charities as simply a relief
organization. Its most important
work. however. is not the giving of
relief. but the Strengthening out of
family difficulties. In this process
if relief is needed it is given-some-
times given for months and years,
where the mother is a widow with
small children and there are abso-
to help. But only about 45 per cent
of the families coming to the atten
ton of the society require financial
aid from it's treasury. With the 9TH

friendship, of family adjustment, of
