Skull Fractured Last Saturday evening, passenger train number 19, south-bound, brought into Milford, H. N. Allen, a track-inspector, suffering from a badly-injured head and other hurts. Allen was picked up by the train crew from beside be-side the tracks, bis gasoline motor lying overturned, nearby. The motor either jumped the track, or else was struck by a passing freight, unknown to the crew; the former theory seems more probable. The injured man was given first-aid treatment by the local railroad physician and sent back to Salt Lake on number2, where he could receive further medical attention. The accident happened not far from Lynndyl. It is thought the man's skull was fractured.
