NEWS: CHARLES GANOE, FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT (Clarion
Democrat Thursday July 23, 1896)
On Thursday morning of last week Charles Ganoe son
of J. W. Ganoe, the postmaster and well known business man at
Phillipston, this county, was the victim of a horrible accident, which it is
feared will result in his death. The unfortunate man, who is, about
25 years old, married and the father of two children, is a brakeman of the A. V.
Ry., running on a freight between Pittsburgh and Oil City. On last
Thursday morning his train stopped at East Brady, to take on some cars. Ganoe
was to make the coupling and was in the middle of the track running backwards
with his hand on the coupling of the moving car when his feet caught in a hoop
lying on the track and he tripped and fell on his back. Before he could
raise the wheels had run over his legs necessitating amputation of one limb a
few inches below the groin and the other a short distance below the
knee. The unfortunate man was very popular among the trainmen and the
terrible misfortune which has thus overtaken him is greatly deplored. He
was living at last accounts, but his recovery was considered next to impossible.
