The Lead Belt News, Flat
River, Missouri FRANK MARBURY KILLED BY TRAIN THIS
MORNING. Frank Marbury, age 21, was killed by an ore train at Rivermines about 6:45 o'clock this morning. He caught the train near the overhead bridge at Flat River and was riding to work. He was employed at the St. Joseph Lead Company machine shop at Rivermines. When he attempted to jump off the train as it was passing the shops he was in some manner thrown beneath the cars. His right leg was cut off and a terrible gash was cut in his head. He was still living when picked up, but died on the way to the Bonne Terre hospital. Young Marbury had recently returned to Flat River from Detroit, and had been working at the machine shops for only a short time. We were informed by Mrs. A. Nipper, with whom he had been boarding, that his parents lived on a farm between Caledonia and Bismarck. |
