GREENEVILLE O'Donnell dent. of Thi ook tion- Former Well Known ace, Killed by m Providence—Local Men- James O'Donnell, formerly of Greene- ville and’ well known in this city, was killed -in_Providence Friday evening, June 18, by being Tun over by a heavy truck. He was the son of Patrick and Bridget O'Donnell, now of Bridgeton, J.. formerly of Greeneville, who survive, He leaves also three broth- ers and three sisters. A brother, Pat- rick, died in May. The Providence Tribune thus speaks of the occur- rence. The unknown man who was run over by a heavily loaded truck at the cor- ner of South Main and Cent streets, early Friday evéning and almost in- stantly Killed, has been identified by Jams Wright of Norwich, Conn., as James O'Donnell of Bridgeton, J. ‘Wright had known O’Donnell, and see- ing him in the city Friday, thought that he might be the unkn ‘wn. The identification is thought to be correct, as there was a small tattoo mark at the base of the right thumb extending up to the forearm, on which there was outline of a heart and the initials J. O'D” The accident was a peculiar one, though Medical Examiner Magill thinks that it was an accident pure and simple. The man had been drink- ing heavily and was leaning against a pole on the sidewalk when a truck owned by C. H. Weaver came along. The truck was heavily laden. The driver, Antone Fratus, turned out from the car tracks to allow two cars to pass just before he cameto Cent street and kept close to the gutter. He no- ticed a man leaning against a post at the corner, but did not appreciate the fact that 'he was intoxicated. The horses passed the man, who just then lost his balance and pitched forward to the ground. Fratus pulled up the borses in quick order on: hearing a cry, as it was shown by the fact that the wheel which first tonched the man's head did not turn from it. Medica] Examiner Magill was noti- fied and thé body of the man was moved to an undertaking establish- ment, where an effort was made to identity him. He had been drinking ‘heavily. ‘Witnesses of the accident are unan- imous in. exonerating the driver:from blame and ascribe the man’s death to his intoxicated" conditton, Short Notes.
