Billings MT Gazette, Thursday 1 Dec 1949
   Adam Thomas Kilwien, 36, of Laurel died Wednesday at about 1:30 p.m. in a 
Billings hospital about four hours after he was found unconscious near the 
coal docks in the Laurel yards of the Northern Pacific railway.

   Mr. Kilwien, a laborer at the docks, was found beside his wheelbarrow near 
the tracks at about 9:30 a.m.  He was given emergency first aid treatment and 
then was brought to the Billings hospital where he died at about 1:30 p.m. 
without regaining consciousness.

   His physician said his death was the result of head injuries.

   A railway official, investigating the death, said that a switch engine had 
passed along the tracks shortly before Mr. Kilwien’s body was found but that 
there was no indication that he had been struck.

   Mr. Kilwien had been employed at the docks for a number of years, entering 
the employ of the railway in 1944 when it took over management of the docks 
from the company which had operated them previously.

   He resided at 812 Washington avenue in Laurel. The widow survives.
