A soldier named HINSDALE, who was
returning to his home in Waughtown was horribly crushed at the
railroad station {the North Carolina RR} in this place on Monday morning last. He attempted to
jump upon the platform of a car while the train was in motion, but not
gaining the platform was carried to the woodshed, between which and
the car he was so badly mangled that he died in a few minutes. |
