The rerular monthly meetlox of

Confederacy, held yeaterday i after
noon in the W. L. I. armory, was of
more than the ainal lntereat from the
fact that a moat com prehen aire report

LIFE CRDSBED OCT.
Owen D. Hansley Met Tragic
Death in A. C. L. Yards
Last Night.
CIRCUMSTANCES UNKNOWN.
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.
Mr. J. W. Freeman and his
bride have returned from their wed
ding tour North.
Mrs. A. D. McQueen and three
children, Miss Bella and Masters Harry
and Percy, left Wednesday night for
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, to make
their borne In that city.
