The Wyoming Tribune - April 19, 1917 --
SWITCHMAN KILLED UNDER TRAIN WHEELS --

Casper, Wyo., April 19. -- Carl E. Harmon, aged 26 years, died at the Casper 
Private Hospital after having been horribly crushed and mangled under the 
wheels of a Northwestern train near the Midwest Refineries. He was removed to 
the hospital in a semiconscious condition and succumbed 13 minutes later.

Harmon was a switchman in the employ of the C.& N.W., and until two months ago 
was employed in a similar capacity by the Burlington. The fatal accident befell 
him while engaged in his regular duties. He had stepped between the cars to 
couple them and in some unaccountable manner was knocked to the track. Before 
other train employees were aware of what was happening, the wheels of the car 
had passed over his body.
