Suggested edit: Crushed to Death —"——— Claude Skillman Loses Life Friday Evening ning at Elma ———— Claude Skillman, agean, aged 22 years, a trainman in the employ of the log train of the Elma Logging Company, fell beneath the cars of the logging train on which he was working Friday afternoon, and was instantly killed. Skillman was working around the trucks. He lost his footing in some fashion, slipped and fell under the cars. One truck passed over him, crushing his head and causing instant death. Skillman was engaged as brakeman on the logging train at the time of the accident. The crew had just unloaded a train of logs in the Chehalis river below Elbow riffle. The signal had been given to "go ahead" and Skillman made a jump for the moving train. He slipped and was thrown under the moving wheels. His body was caught by the low trucks and dragged some distance before the wheels passed over him. The accident occurred about 4:30 o'clock and was witnessed by several bystanders. The train was stopped as soon s possible, but not until several trucks had passed over the unfortunate young man. When his companions reached his side life was extinct. • The Chehalis County Vidette (Montesano) January 29, 11909
