The Monroe Bulletin (Monroe, LA), March 30, 1911, Page 5, Column 3
BRAKEMAN WAS KILLED.
Fell Under Wheels While Coupling
Cars and Was Crushed.
	Dodson, La., March 29. – Hugh Wilson, aged about 23 years, a brakeman 
on the local freight train running on the Rock Island between Winnfield and 
Ruston, while coupling cars on the side track near the depot last night shortly after dark was caught under the car wheels in some manner and crushed almost to pieces.  Death resulted in about two hours.
	After the sad accident happened Doctor O.H. Parker, a local physician, was summoned, and did what he could to help the suffering man.  The victim was placed aboard the caboose of the freight that killed him, and carried to Winnfield, where doctors were summoned but there he died.
	The body was shipped on the morning passenger train to his former home in Arkansas for interment. 
	Shortly after the accident at the depot the section house on the Rock 
Island Railway was found to be on fire.  The building was occupied by Frank 
Caefer and family, a colored laborer on the section, and some other Negroes who boarded with him.  The entire contents of the house were destroyed.  The occupants were not aroused until just in time to escape with their lives.  It is thought that the fire was an incendiary nature.
