(Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938: August 16, 1872 William Christy, aged 15 years, a son of Josiah M. Christy, of Gallitzin, came to his death at Cresson last Thursday evening by the cars running over him. He had gone to Cresson from Gallitzin that evening, and was endeavoring to get aboard a freight train to return home, when he missed his footing and fell on the track. The car wheels ran over his legs and a part of his body, and so severely injured him that he died shortly afterward.
