Friday afternoon after liniahino hisday's work at the l?rit-k yard, Crockett, with several o !.? r negroes, was cnmiii*; aloiiu the tracks of the rail road to hihomo is: this place. When h point opposite th Mil! fort Mill had been reached it seems that Crockett had none ahead of iiis menus a snort distance un<l. ; owing to the fact that a freight i train was shifting cars nearby. He nii't] to pay no attention to tin passo .ger train approaching from tlit* mar. CYo? kett continued his walk between the main line and the side track, upon which a seclion of a freight train stood, until the passenger train was within a few few feet of liiiu. Just at this lime his friends railed to liiiu to get out of the way. Mid it is evident that Crockett thought that his friends were warning him of danger from the freight train, for he mounted the main line directly in front of the passenger train. The negro was carried several feet upon the pilot aiid.his body rolled off between the tracks. The wheels of the train did not pass over him but the force of the blow was so great as to break his neck, both legs and an arm, producing death almost instantly. The coroner was noliti d of the accident, and held an inquest Saturday, the jury rendering a verdict in accordance with the above facts. The negro's remains were taken to Smiths Turnout Saturday fot i. ? ? -?? Mr. S.
