He was assisting in putting away the Georgia Midland passenger train and no one saw the accident, but as the engine was backing up to the coach it is supposed he attempted to pass between them, but was too slow. The skin was not broken on his body at all and the injuries were internal. He walked some distance after being released, but stated that he would die, and expired in about two hours.
