Fatal Railroad Accident.
HARPER’S FERRY, May 18– 6 P. M.
We have again to inform you of another fatal accident on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad this afternoon, near this place. A man named Jacob Greenhodge, or Greenwood, one of the hands in the employment of the company, was out with Mr. Beachem, the agent, engaged on the road, when a train suddenly came upon them. Mr. Beachem barely succeeded in making good his escape, whilst the unfortunate Greenwood was caught and crushed to death, the whole train passing over him. He was an honest, industrious and worthy man. — Te. Cor. Balt. Sun.
