east-bonitd station. and Mr. Griffin's
body was placed on this by the em-
ployee of the station. and carried into
the baggage-room of the west-bound

must have resulted instantly. The
news of the accident spread rapidly.

scene and viewed the body through the
windows of the baggage-room.

the sad news and they remained for
some time with the afflicted family.
