The Cambria freeman. (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938: June 16, 1870
A young man named John Ryan, who resides in Prospect borough, met with a fatal
accident at Altoona, on Friday night last. He started from here on that morning for

Failing to secure a job, he concluded to return home and just us the Fast Line left
the depot at Altoona, he attempted to jump on the train, but missing his footing he
fell beneath the car and the wheels passed over his leg at the hip. He was brought
here on the same day, but owing to the severe nature of his injuries he died at 11
o'clock the following morning.  His remains were interred in the Catholic burying
ground on Sunday, followed by a large concourse of sorrowing friends. Deceased
