Egypt Farmer Hit By R., S. & E. Car
Said to Have Been Staggering Along the Track.
Fairport, April 30.—Fred Sackett, 55 years old, an Egypt farmer, was struck by a Rochester, Syracuse & Eastern car at a point between stops 19 and 20 this afternoon and almost instantly killed. The car was stopped and members of the train crew went back to investigate. They found the man dead with his head badly crushed by contact with the front of the car.
Coroner Killip was notified, and ordered the remains brought to this village. The motorman told the coroner that when he first saw Sackett he was staggering ahead of the car in an apparently intoxicated state. He staggered off the tracks, after a warning whistle had been sounded, but just as the car was about to pass him he stumbled and fell over upon the tracks. The car threw him to one side. The coroner will hold an inquest.
