STRUCK BY A TRAIN
       JOSEPH MENEGAY KILLED ON THE FT. WAYNE RAILWAY, SUNDAY
     Joseph Menegay, a son of Simon Menegay, of West Gorgas Street, was 
killed near Garfield, Ohio, Sunday afternoon. Mr. Menegay was walking along 
the track of the Pennsylvania Railway Company and was struck by the Toledo 
special at about one o'clock. He had been on track No. 1 and stepped to track 
No. 2 in order to get out of the way of an east bound train. After he had 
done this he was struck by the Toledo train. Death was instantaneous but the 
body was not mangled.
     Mr. Menegay was born on a farm a short distance west of Louisville about 
forty-three years ago. Upon reaching the age of manhood he left the farm and 
had since been employed as a moulder. For the past year he had been making 
his home in Beaver Falls. Pa. He is survived by his father and the following 
sisters and brothers. Louis Menegay, of Cleveland; Frank Menegay of Chippewa 
Lake; Charles Menegay of Akron; Henry Menegay of New Berlin Ohio; James 
Menegay and Mrs. Louis N. Ley, of Canton; Mrs. Alfonso Faiver, of Lansing 
Mich; Miss Anna Menegay of Louisville. The remains were brought to 
Louisville, Monday afternoon, and were taken to the home of his father, where 
they were viewed by many friends and associates. Funeral services were held 
at St. Louis Catholic church, Tuesday afternoon, and were conducted by Rev. 
Father Senner. The attendance at the services was large. Interment was made 
in the Catholic cemetery.
