He had started in to work only the day before. He was about starting a new room and it encountered what is known as a “slip,” which caused a piece of rock that weighed about four tons to suddenly fall and the immense boulder caught the unfortunate man, crushing his head to a pulp. It required four men to roll the rock from off the body. John Kane, of South Fork, was almost instantly killed at Ehrenfeld on Saturday night about 6:30 o’clock. Kane had been in Ehrenfeld some time Saturday night, he went to the depot in Ehrenfeld. When a swiftly moving train passed, Kane attempted to board it, but missed his footing and fell under the wheels of the car following the one he tried to board. As he fell to the ground the unfortunate man shrieked in agony and attempted to get from behind the car. He was ground to pieces, however. On Sunday morning Thomas N. Sutton, a boy aged 12 years, son of James and Mary Sutton of Flynn’s Mills, (Collier’s Station), on the line of the Pennsylvania and Northwestern railroad in Blair county, was sent to Blandburg, this county, on an errand. This was about 7 o’clock. At 10 o’clock his dead body was discovered by a couple of other boys at the side of an embankment along which at one time ran a tramway for hauling logs. The boy had evidently been walking this old road when he slipped and fell. In his endeavor to save himself, it is supposed he loosened some stones with the result that the embankment gave way and falling on him, broke his neck. His body when found was partially covered by debris. Deceased was the son of James and Mary Sutton and was 12 years old on March 10th last.
