The burial of Lemuel Leach, killed Thursday forenoon by a B. & O. S-W branch train, will be Saturday morning at Beech Grove cemetery. Hugh Arnold, a son-in-law who resides in Bloomington came down Thursday to look after the arrangements.
Leach was killed near the electric light plant, while walking along the B. & O. track. He heard the train when it was about ten feet away and tried first to get off the north side, then the south side of the track. His body was wedged under the engine.
