On Tuesday evening last, Patrick Keough, an Irishman, and workingman of the 
vicinity of Washington,La., took the evening passenger train and went as far as 
Begg's Station where he got off. He is supposed to have been under the 
influence of liquor at the time, and wandered down the track and took his seat 
on the end of the cross ties near which he was found dead. Sheriff Duson, who 
went up to investigate the matter, states that the situation in which he found 
him confirms the opinion that he was killed by a night train.
