killed near Jackman’s ranch, west of Reno.  The testimony showed that the
unfortunate man was lying on the track, but whom he was discovered it was too
late to stop the engine although every effort was made to do so.  As soon as the

signs of life being evident, he started off for Reno and informed parties of the
occurrence.  Coroner Brown departed on a special to the scene of the accident,
and found the unfortunate man alive but sinking rapidly.  He was brought to Reno
where he died Sunday morning at 3 o’clock.  The jury rendered a verdict in
accordance with the above facts.
