The Herald, Piedmont, West Virginia, 6 June 1902:  
"A most distressing accident occurred at Thomas last Friday. James 
Keegan, aged 22, left Elk Garden late Friday for Thomas to secure 
work. On Saturday morning about 4 o'clock, his body was found on 
the railroad, his head and shoulders having been severed from his 
body by the cars. The remains were brought to Elk Garden Saturday 
evening by his father, and on Monday taken to Westernport for 
interment. It seems that the unfortunate man's death was the 
result of robbers. There was no money on his person."
