He attempted to ride up Plane 5 on the bumping beam of a freight car, and about the time the car was starting, observed another car loose, coming down the plane. He, seeing his danger, jumped from the car, and his foot striking a stick, threw him under the wheel, which passed over his thigh, crushing it frightfully. He survived but a short time, suffering the most intense agony.
