      A brakeman by the name of Lynch was run over and killed at Crow Wing on Saturday morning last. His residence as given by him to the railroad company was at Garner, Iowa, but no response to a telegram could be received from that place, and he was buried in Evergreen cemetery here on Sunday.
      LATER—Since the above was written Mrs. O. H. Hubbard is in receipt of a letter from her sister dated Garner, Ia. Oct. 8, in which she says that she had just seen Mrs. Lynch the unfortunate young man's mother, that the telegram has been received and they were nearly wild with grief. Mrs. Lynch requested Mr. Hubbard to mark her son's grave so that his remains may be returned next winter to Iowa. (Brainerd Dispatch, 09 October 1885, p. 3, c. 4)
