WAS HIT BY AN ENGINE
_____
Yesterday about 3 p. m. the passenger going north of the Minnesota & International struck a farmer, by the name of D. S. Borden who lives near Merrifield.
The man was walking on the track going north and did not hear the approaching train. He was thrown thirty feet in the air. The train stopped and the injured man was brought back to Brainerd and taken to the Northern Pacific Sanitarium. His injuries are very serious. He had a leg and four ribs broken, and suffered severe internal injuries. He will probably die. (Brainerd Dispatch, 06 December 1901, p. 1, c. 6)
