As the 8:30 p.m. train on Saturday night from Woodstock for McAdam Junction was crossing a point about three miles north of Debec station (Carleton Co.), a passenger named Patrick DALEY fell between the baggage and passenger cars and was instantly killed. The train was stopped and the body brought on board. It was found that both Daley's legs were broken and his chest crushed. The remains were brought to Debec station from which point they were forwarded to his late home at Greenville (Carleton Co.)
