Chas. Eabcock.
Charles Eabcock died at his home
in this city Tuesday morning. The
cause of his death is ascribed to a
broken leg he received many years
ago, while in the employ of the Lake
Shore Ry. He was a brakeman and
leaped off his train to throw a
switch. The night was dark and he
misjudged the place and fell from a
bridge over a street at Amherst. One
leg was so badly broken that it had
to he amputated. He was confined
to the hospital for several months.
The wound' never healed, and hfc al¬
ways had trouble with the leg. In¬
fection set in and permeated his en¬
tire body, causing death.
He is survived by his wife, mother
and three brothers. The funeral
was held from his residence Thursday
afternoon with services by Rev. Lam-
bertus. The body was laid to rest
in Lakeview cemetery. ff-( g 'ffX^
