I left it just as it was published. Quaint, weren't they?\| "Aged Man Is Killed Here By Fast Train" Frank Baird, Age 82, Cut To Bits By Crack L & N Freight Tuesday Evening. Frank Baird, age about 72 according to officers, was instantly killed Tuesday evening about seven o'clock when struck by the fast L & N freight train going south. The accident, which mangled the aged man's body beyond recognition happened about a quarter of a mile south west of the passenger depot. The body had been carried by the train about 30 yards, according to Policeman John Clair, and tossed in bits clear of the track. It is believed the accident was caused as a result of Mr. Baird not hearing the train. The body was discovered by a passerby who notified the agent and he in turn notified policemen. Mr. Baird, who lives below LaFollette, is a brother of Millard Baird, and an Uncle of County Road Superintendent Frank Baird. Funeral services were held Thursday at ten o'clock and burial was in Elk Valley, Agee & Carden in charge. Survivors are three brothers, Millard and Joe of Jacksboro and Mitt of Jellico, two sisters, Mrs. Flem Lay and Mrs. Noble of Jellico, and six children. Rev. Nolan Roberts and Rev. Perkins were in charge of services.
