The Jonesboro News
On Wednesday night of last week Mr. Ovid H. Kimble in some way fell from a 
Coast Line train near Savannah.  The train was crossing a trestle in a large 
swamp at the time of the accident and Mr. Kimble fell in the water 20 feet 
below.  When he reached the bank of the stream he found that he was in a large 
swamp from which he was unable to extricate himself for a day and night, when 
he succeeded in attracting the attention of three negroes who got him out and 
carried him to their cabin, where he remained until Saturday when the negroes 
succeeded in stopping a train upon which he was carried to Savannah where he is 
under the care of physicians.
