P. R. R. ( Casement House, corner Farnam and Nineth Streets, Starkweather & Morrow, Prop’s) ________________ 1882 - Daily Wabash Express, Terre Haute, Vigo County, 14 Jan 1882 CRUEL WHEELS They End the Existence of Albert C. Noteware, a Vandalia Brakeman _______ About seven o’clock yesterday morning Rarney Fagin, a Vandalia employe, was going to work, and a hand car and just east of the trestle work, this side of Manville, he discovered the body of Albert C. Noteware, a Candela brakeman, lying by the side of the track with his left arm and left leg cut off. Half way down the grade was lying his lantern, from which it was rightly presumed that he had fallen from a train and been run over. Coroner Laughed was summoned, and after examining the remains, they were brought to the city , and placed in charge of Undertaker Katzenbach. Last night they were shipped to Galesburg, Illinois where his wife’s family reside. Noteware was a brakeman on freight train No. 26, which leaves this city for the west at 7:30 p. m. The train was late however, in making up, and it was about 8:15 when it pulled out. The absence of Noteware was not discovered until the first stop was made. The conductor telegraphed back to this city that there were short one brakeman, who had probably been left here. When Noteware’s watch was examined, the crystal was broken and the case bent, and the watch had stopped at 8:32, denoting the time he fell. On his person was found a four ounce bottle of whiskey, but scarcely any had been drank. Marshal Kidd, who knew Noteware and his family, met him about half-past six o’clock on the evening of the accident, but he was not then under the influence of liquor. J. M Cheshbrough, assistant general passenger agent of the Vandalia, was an intimate friend of Noteware, and on learning of his death, telegraphed to have the body shipped to Galesburg to John Edwards, the deceased’s father-in-law. Marshal Kidd accompanied the body to Galesburg. Coroner Laughed will conclude the inquest upon the return to this city of the crew of the train from which Noteware fell. _________________________ “Albert C Noteware, a Vandalia freight brakeman fell off the train and was killed near Terre Haute last week” (the Crawfordsville Star - Jan 19, 1882)
