Alexandria Times-Tribune, January 27, 1906
FARMER MEETSINSTANT DEATH
West bound train No. 6 on the Lake Erie & Western road, due in this city last 
evening at 8:55 o’clock, was delayed by a tragedy at a road crossing near 
Reed’s Station, where a man afterward identified as Martin Justice was run 
down and killed.  With a view of the train cut off and evidently taken unaware 
because of the noise of his wagon, Justice drove onto the track directly in 
front of the speeding train.  Both the man and his team were killed and the 
wagon was demolished.     The train was stopped and returned to the scene of 
the tragedy, where the man was found with life extinct.  The body was brought 
to this city in the baggage car and returned to Reed’s Station on the 
eastbound train shortly afterward.     Justice was a farmer, thirty-five years 
old, and leaves a wife and one child.

Additional Comments:
Name should be Morton Justice.
