Guddard, a locomotive fireman of this city, was instantly killed at Coyote Wednesday night by being struck by the engine pull ing train No. 3. Goddard went out of here Wednesday evening as fire man for Wood White. When the train reached Coyote it broke in three pieces, and while the train men were working on the train Guddard was sent down the track to flag passenger train No. 3, then due. Engineer Whitlock was pulling No. 3 and owing- to the fine snow falling and trickling1 on the cab window and the escaping steam it was difficult to see far ahead. Suddenly Whitlock saw a white lantern swing across the track giv ing the signal to stop. He answered the signal, applied the emergency brake and saw the form of a man thrown from the track. When the train stopped, the trainmen went back and Goddard was found dead against a slight embankment, fie was placed on the train, brought to this city and taken to Warner' undertaking rooms. An examina tion showed that the right side of his face and head was crushed in, the skull fractured all the way round, and his right hip bone broken and protruding through the flesh. Engineer Whitlock says that when he first saw the signal it was about two car lengths ahead, and ihat Goddard was standing in the middle of the track. Why the latter remained on the track until the engine struck him is a mystery, but the supposition is that he became confused and lost his head. Goddard was evidently thrown against the drawhesd on the engine pilot, and this concussion probably crushed his head. The unfortunate man had been firing on the road a year or so, and prior to that worked with the ice gang. He came here from a small town near Hastings and had been married about three mouths.
