Show ALMOST WONDERFUL. When the Utah & Northern freight train, bound south on Saturday last arrived at Oneida, it was discovered that the brakeman, John Knowles, was missing. It being feared he might be hurt, men on the locomotive were immediately sent back to find him, and soon met him coming on a hand car with the section men. It appears that while leaning over the side of the train to give a signal to the engineer he lost his balance. Feeling himself falling he fortunately had presence of mind enough to throw himself clear of the train, and alighting on the snow, which was deep, he sustained no injury, although it was a close call. Don't do it again, John! It's risky business. |
