Wilcox Progressive Era

  Dr. Polk Robinson of Snow Hill was run over and killed by a train
at Wallace on the Pensacola and Selma division of the Louisville
and Nashville Railroad yesterday.
  Dr. Robinson attempted to board a freight train at 11 o'clock 
yesterday morning at Wallace, which is a few miles north of Flomaton. 
He missed his footing and fell. His left leg was cut off and his body, 
which was caught between the cars and the platform, was terribly 
mashed. He was immediately taken to Flomaton, where he received 
surgical aid, but he died at 3 o'clock.
  Dr. Robinson's home was in Snow Hill, Wilcox County, and he was 
well-known in Wilcox and Dallas Counties. 
- Selma cor. to the Mont. Advertiser, 14.
