Linderman, Grant

TWO KILLED BY TRACK WALKING, A Garrett Gus Hoover, a night watchman, and Grant 
Linderman, Constable of Stewart Township, Fayette County, were struck and killed 
Friday night by Duquesne Limited, on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, near HK 
tower, not far from Confluence. The terrible accident occurred about 8 o'clock, 
and the bodies were hurled from the tracks but were not badly mangled. Both were 
dead when members of the crew of the train, which stopped, picked them up. Both 
men leave widows and large families. It is said that Mr. Hoover was not on duty 
at the time he was killed but that he and Linderman were walking together along 
the railroad. The bodies were turned over to Undertaker Humbert, of Confluence, 
and on Saturday sent to their homes so suddenly blighted.
