the time the morning train from toronto comes in and it is thought that he expected the train to stop as usual but instead of being the regular train it was a special which did not stop at the station as he anticipated consequently it struck the milk wagon and horse sending them in opposite directions the horse was carried some 50 feet up the track and the wagon smashed to pieces burkholder was
