Killed |
We are informed
that a man by the name of William Mincher, in attempting to get on the
freight train of the Alabama & Florida {(of
Alabama)} Railroad yesterday about 12 o'clock, fell, and the cars
passed over his body, mutilating it in a most horrible manner. He
died almost instantly, and his remains were brought to this city and
interred in the cemetery. He leaves a wife and one child in very
dependent circumstances. |
