    3. The Progressive Batavian Batavia, Genesee County, New York State February 19-1875 * Attica.-Those people who are in the habit of walking on railroad track, should abandon such walks, unless they are thoroughly posted on the time of trains, and even then, a word of caution would not come amiss. Mr. BEMAN of Attica, had a narrow escape from being run over by Turrel's train Tuesday afternoon. He was walking down the track east of the village, and was busy watching a train going west on the Erie, and did not notice Turrell's train, that was coming in his rear. Harvey whistled down brakes and reversed his engine, and Mr. BEMAN realized his situation just in time to step from the track, and avoid being run over. * submitted by Linda C.
