William O. Sulllivan b: Jun 14 1889 - d. Oct 15 1910 - Montrose Boy Killed By 
Train - William Sullivan Struck By Katy Limited at Appleton City - Special to 
Republican, Montrose, MO., Oct. 17 - William, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. L. W. 
Sullivan, met with a violent death at Appleton City Saturday evening by being 
struck by the Southbound Limited. He, with several companions, attempted to 
cross the track before the train, the glare of the electric head light making the 
distance of an approaching train very delusive. The other young men reached the 
other side in safety, Will, being the last, was struck by the engine and thrown 
about fifty feet distant, receiving fatal injuries, his head being crushed to a pulp 
on the back. He was taken to a doctor's office where it was found medical aid 
would not avail anything. The young man was then tenderly conveyed to the home 
of Wm. Sageser where he died about ten o'clock. Besides his parents, he leaves a 
sister and many relatives and friends to mourn his untimely death. Judge P. H. 
Sullivan, an uncle, was in Appleton City at the time of the accident attending the 
Hadley speaking, as well as many others from Montrose. The funeral services 
were held at the home of his parents in Montrose, Sunday at 3 p.m., conducted by 
Rev Elam of Clinton. The body was laid to rest in the Montrose cemetery followed 
by a large concourse of friends.
