He miscalculated and the result was fatal. for the young man was dead when found by the trainmen several minutes later. The message was a great shock to the family and community, As soon as possible his brothers, Ceorge and Irwin went to Sanborn and accompanied the remains home. The body was not badly mutilated. Deceased was 23 year of age and an exceptionally fine young wan who made fast friends wherever he want. He attended the Woodbine Normal school and graduated in one of the courses of that school.
