Full Text

Last Friday, just as the Markdale and Flesherton S.S. trip passed thro' Orangeville, a melancholy spectacle presented itself to the excursionists in the fearfully mangled body of a track foreman, named Thomas McDonald. // Donald had been engaged with a gang of men in making some repairs on one of the staion yard sidings, and was there run over by the shunting engine, and instantly killed. The deceased was an old and faithful servant of the company, and was highly respected. He leaves a wife to mourn his end.
