Charles Fullerton, 51 years old and well known in Bemidji, was instantly killed yesterday fore- noon, at 11 o’clock, about a mile and a half north of Puposky, be- Ing run over by a train on the Minneapolis, Red Lake & Mani- toba railway. Fullerton had been to Puposky and walked from that place to collect some money that was due him, at the home of a friend a mile and a half north of Puposky. He was returning to Puposky, walking in the middle of theé rail- road track, when he was hit by a train. The train crew saw the man walking on the track, but as the latter was deaf, he did not hear the train approaching and did not attempt to move from be- tween the rails. Every effort was made to stop the train, but without avail. Ful- lerton was picked up from be- tween the engine and the first car on the train and an examin- ation showed that he was badly hurt about the head, that both arms were broken and that he was injured internally. - ‘| “The train~ was immsdiafily headed for Bemidji and the body was brought to this city. The injuries caused instant death. No blame can possibly be at- tempt whatever to get off the track when the train approached, and as he’¢ould not be seen until the engine was within a few feet of him, it was impossible: to stop the train. e The body was taken to Lahr’s undertaking rooms and prepa.ed for burial. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 2 p. m. ° Charles Fullerton came to Be- midji three years ago, from Iowa, and lived for a time with his son, D. H. Faullerton, but more re- cently has resided with his daughter, Mrs. W. M. Bavaird, son, D. H. Fullerton, who is at present at Solway, the dead man .tleaves two sons, C. H. Fullerton of Lakota, N.
