In hoisting one of the derailed cars by means of a “jack,” a slip of the machinery occurred, catching the negro between a car and the tender of the wrecked engine, pinning him fast, crushing the breast-bone, causing internal injuries which produced death. His sufferings were intense, and he died in great agony. All that human agency could do to relieve and prolong life, was done by Dr. Luther Gabriel, of Brook Station.
