Effingham
Beecher City, Jan. 8.—Aaron Mansfield, an old pioneer of Holliday, Shelby County, and a village a few miles distant from this city, was knocked off the B. & O. trestle Saturday afternoon by a freight train, knocking him thirty feet to the ground. He was picked up by the crew and brought to Beecher City and taken to the office of Dr. E. W. Brooks. The injured man lingered until night and passed away. The remains were taken to Holliday Sunday morning for burial.
The deceased was well known through this vicinity, and his sudden demise will come as a sad surprise to his many friends. The funeral arrangements had not been made Sunday, but it is supposed that the funeral will be Tuesday.—Effingham Record.
