Abbott, of Mt. Auburn, Iowa attempts to cross a railroad crossing ahead of a train and is cought and instantly killed. Friday afternoon, as Mr.L.C. Abbott of Mt. Auburn was coming to Vinton driving a single horse, he under took to cross the Correll crossing at the northwest corner of town. He miscalculated the distance and was thrown a considerable distance and died a short time after the accident. The train was running at a good speed and Mr. Abbott's body was pretty badly mangled. It was thrown against and caught on the top of the cowcatcher, as was also the buggy. The train which was a heavy freight was stopped as soon as possible. the body was left on the cow-catcher and brought to the depot,which was only a short distance. The body was taken into the depot and the relatives immediately notified. From all the facts we could gather this death was caused by the miscalculation of Mr. Abbott or the horse becoming over excited. The road coming in from Mt. Auburn runs parallel with the railroad for quite a distance before it reaches this crossing so that the train can be seen. The trainmen say that when Mr. Abbott got near the crossing he stopped his horse as though he intended to wait and let the train pass first. Then, evidently thinking the train was far enough back to let him pass, started his horse again and met the train square on the crossing. Mr. Abbott was one of the pioneers of the county and a man greatly respected in his section of the country. By frugality and industry he had accumulated a competence. He was somewhat over 70 years of age and has family of grown children. He had been married again but a short time and was living in Mt. Auburn, having retired from active farm live. The funeral was held in Mt.Auburn yesterday.
