His MsBfJed Body Found Under a Shift lo( Engine . Presnmed That He Attempted to Board a Trsia to Return Home. - Owen D. H.nslev. seed about 85 years and a truck farmer living near Castle Ssynes, this county, was hor. ribly crushed to desth on the A. O. L yards in Wilmington, near Fourth street bridge, last night about 7 o'clock, Exactly how the accident occurred will perhaps never be known. Ysrd En gine 101, inchargeof Engineer Brown, started out to the "Y" about the hour indicated and the a witcb man on the pilo t "of Ui engine, noticed the body.. Engineer Brown and others wsnt to Investigate and saw the mangled form under the engine. Death mutt have resulted almost instantly. Several theories were advanced last night as to the probsble way in which the young man met his death. . Oae is that he was coming up the yards to the station to board the 7 o'clock train, northbound, . for his home and that in attempting to board the csrs he wss thrown under the wheels and crushed to death. This theory, however, is discredited by the fact that the young man was found on the trscks of the W. 0. & A. railroad, over which the northbound train did not pass. Another theory is that in attempting to board the northbound train he was thrown to the W. C. & A. tracks, knocked senseless and that the shifting engine later came on and took the body under its pilot. Dr. O. D. Bell, the coroner; Dr. D. W. Bulluck, A. O. L. Surgeon, and Dr. O. T. Harper, city superintendent of health, were among the pbysiciana whoylaited the scene, but the man was beyond all human aid. His right foot was cut off near the ankle and the other leg was almost severed from his body. His bead was crushed in to so some extent and there were also bruises about the body and armr. The remains were removed to the undertsking estsblishment of Mr. W. E. Yopp and prepsred for burial. The funeral arrangements, however, will not be made until later. The deceased was a son of Mr. W. M. Hsnaley, of Caatle Haynes, a well known citizen and, aurveyor of the county. He leaves a wife and a little son as well as several brothers and sisters. Mrs. O. J. Jones, wife of Po liceman Jones, is a sister of the young men and the funeral . arrangements are beiax made -by. Mr. Jones. Tha I death I Indeed a aad one and the family has the sympathy of friends In their bereavement. Other relativea surviving the de ceased are the following brothers and sisters, Mr. Ed. Griffin and Mrs. David Futcb, of Wilmington; Mrs. Moses Padrlck, Miss Sallte Hansley and Mr. W. M. Hansley, Jr. Mr. Calvin C. Bordeax, of this city, is a cousin of the deceased. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.
