Reuben Eicher Hit by Train

 Reuben Eicher, Bucyrus oldest citizen probably fatally hurt, resides with 
daughter Mrs. Peter Grimm near Brokensword quarries, was struck by a freight 
train 4 o'clock Monday afternoon. Six ribs were broken and head badly cut. He 
made his home with his son James Eicher in Bucyrus until a few months ago. He 
was returning by train from a visit to his son when he was hit. After leaving 
the train he did not see the freight train and due to being very hard of 
hearing did not hear the frantic blowing of the train whistle. He will be 96 
next month.
