Cros: laude Burroughs of ~Mystic, who, th Steve Pember, pitched the West- erly high school in the championship of the interscholastic baseball league last season, is mow a student at the Mercer college in Macon, Ga., and is the crack pitcher of the team repre- senting that college on the baseball field, and is the shining star outfielder when not on the mound. In a recent game against the Buffalo teagn of the Eastern leag: Burroughs made four hits In six tines up and he pitched the first winning game against Geo- gia university. Last Tuesday Burroughs was in the fleld in the second game against Geor- gia, which the Mercers won by a score of § to 1 The Macon Telegraph, in reporting the game, says: “There was no run getting until the fourth Inning; Bur— roughs, up first for Mercer in that inning, swung hard, hitting the ball fair on the nose, lifting it over left- field fence for the longest home run ever seen on the local diamond. The ball crossed the fence down in the field and cleared it by fully twenty ‘feet, while the batter gaily trotted the bases. “In the eighth Inning Burroughs again hit safe, this time for three bases, and later scored when David- son popped one safe over Shortstop. Burroughs led in the play all -through the game. He was at bat three times, made three hits, two runs, and one . "but Glen Curtiss would have that ball that hit over the fence. If Curtiss could only get the soaring qualities in his aeroplane as that ball had, railroads would go_out of business for a while, except to haul freight trains. Burroughs is a dandy, with three times at bat and g homer, a three-bagger and a single to his credit. Isn't that going some?” envied There was a horrible fatality at the Waesterly railway station Saturday aft- erncon ‘when Angelo Meringolo was literally ground to pisces by a fast express train that was speeding through Westerly at the rate of fifty miles an hour. Meringolo was hurrying from his work to his home at 49 Pierce street and wanted to get over the Canal street crossing before the train came along.

L Angelo Meringolo, 33, Hurrying from Work to Dig His Garden, Took Chances with Knickerbocker Express —>Death of Michael Sweene: signed for Next Monday—Firemen'Attend East . reen- —Important Cases As- The gates were down and Meringolo evidently knew that a train was approaching, but probably figured that it was the accommodation train that usually passed at the time when he reaches the crossing when he Js_returning home from his regu- lar day’s work, but Saturday he was permitted to quit work half an hour garlier, as he had some vork to do In his home garden. Instead of the ac- commodation train that slows down on coming into the station, it was the Knickerbocker Limited, that does mot stop at Westerly, but whizzes through at a tremendous speed. Just as Meringolo stepped under the gate, the locomotive gave a shriek of warning, which seemed to daze Merin- golo, €or he stepped on the track and faced the locomotive, seemingly trans- fixed, and a few seconds later the man was cut into small pieces, the remains being . strewn from a few east of the crossing to the signal tower some two hundred feet distant, the crushed head being thrown to one side of the track in tront of the entrance to the sta- tion, and Small portions of the hody being thrown on the west bound track. The train came to a standstill just be- yond the tower, but by that time the entire train had passed over some por- tion_of the body of Meringolo. Dr. J. Howard Morgan, the medical examiner, supervised the collection of the remains of fhe unfortunate man, which were picked up with a shovel and deposited as carefully as possible in an empty sugar barrel; with the ex- ception of a small portion of the back there was not a piece of the body one foot in length. The medical examiner made Investigation of the circum- stances and was of opinion that the railroad company was not responstble for the death. He gave permission for the removal of the rema: Soon thereafter the barrel with its grue- some contents“were placed in the un- dertaker’s ambulance and prepared for burial. The deceased was a gardener and had been employed for the past five years by Dr. John Champlin. Sat- urday was the first day in that long period when he asked to be permitted to quit work before the regular time. Dr. Champlin speaks in the highest terms of the young man; he was com- petent, diligent, of good habits and strictly honest, and, as the doctor said, was just about commencing to live in comfort when he died. He had already paid money as an option for a home of his own. Angelo Meringolo was born in Italy, was thirty-three vears of age, and leaves a wife and three small children, the eldest being only four years of age. He has two sisters who reside in Westerly, besides relatives in his na- tive country. By reason of his being in the employment of Dr. Champlin, he was extensively known to many residents of Westerly, and all refer to him as a voung man of exceptionally goo0d character. His funeral was held Suriday after- the members of the Italian Mu- tual Benefit society attending in a body. - The services for the dead were held in_the Church of the Immaculate Conception and burial was in St. Mi- chael's cemetery noon, Local Laconics.
