dense fog. to run close to the crossover in
order to see if be had the rigbt of w ay Irom

Tbe passenger train was seen to ho five nun-
ules late , and about the same hour the local
passenger train from W altham , scheduled to
leave tbere at 30:80 o'cloilt. was due a' West
Cambridge . ( unction also.
TbH westbound train which left Boston
had come to a luil ston in order that tbe east-
toond train from IVkltbnm , xi hlch had the
rleht-of-\vav , could pass thut point before it
crossed over to tbe Watertown branch.
Mrurk Iroin tlir Hear.
While standing nes.r tbe crossover the ex
press Ireicht train , which was bound west ,
came thundering along and Just as the pass-
cnror train started to cross to tbe Wuter-
towu branch tne frolcbt train crasned into
tbe rrar cor of the passenger train with the
result above described.

those who quickly responded were Drs.

and derrick curs , ivas cent out , but owing to
the fact lhat a man wus forced to run on
fcot in advance to do flag duty , the relief

tbeir destination. On arriving at the scene
they found that Eix of the bodies bud been
removed from tbe debris and were laid out
in tbe W st Cambndgs pas enger station.

Just started ahead when 1 foil ths shock of

I think i\e must have been a couple ol
lengths from ibe Wesl Cambridge station.
Tbe shock forced us ahead tome and then I
stopped. I can't account for tbe accident
except that tbe nicht was so foggy the
cngitiCLr of the freight did not see our brakeman -
man utiUl it was too late to stop his train.
It must hare been that the freight was under
such headway that she could not stop in
time. "
The passenger cars , other than the rear
one , werenot verv aamr.god. nut the shock to
their occu pan is was only u little less severe
than tbat sustained by those in the last car.
II is believed Ihsil hod Oil tars 03 the frcicht

would have oren lorced through ttvo or tbree

As soon as the crash came there \vas at

Frantic men and women rushed uboal
shrieking and crotninc. Those wbo were in

scarcely knowing what to do. Bat soon an
