"The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Tuesday, October 8, 1907 FROM A BRIDGE INTO THE KAW. Car No. 586 of the West Side line was crossing the Kansas avenue bridge over the Kaw river about 9 o'clock last night. E. H. BURNETT, the motorman, saw a man walking on the ties ahead. The bridge has two roadways, one for street cars and one for wagons. BURNETT stopped his car and struck the gong. The man looked back. Then he stepped to the right and fell into the river. BURNETT said the man was about five feet ten inches tall and slightly lame. The police have been unable to find the body. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ======================================================
