3 HIT BY TRAIN, I KILLED
Eugene Willi of White Sulphur Springs a Victim of the Cars at Livingston Manor Yesterday — Earl Hunt Badly Hurt.
The young men of near White Sulphur Springs—Eugene Willi, aged about 20, who lived with his grandfather, Noise Benton; Earl Hunt, aged about 35, son of Port Hunt, and Edward Welton, aged about 30, and married—were out looking for work yesterday, and while walking the Ontario and Western tracks between Livingston Manor and Hazel about 11:30 a.m., they stepped out of the way of a south bound train and were struck by a north bound train. Willi was killed. Hunt was badly injured and was taken to Thrall Hospital, Middletown. Welton escaped injury. Willi’s body was removed to undertaking rooms at Liberty.
