Burns, son of Mrs. Mary Burns of this city, passed away in a hospital at Faribault, Minnesota, on Saturday, February 15, 1913, his death being caused by injuries he sustained while accompanying a car load of imported horses from the Holbert stables to Canada. While the freight train was making a stop at Medford, Minnesota, Mr. Burns left the caboose to look after the horses in his charge. After attending to the animals he boarded the caboose before the train started. The supposition is that he stood on the platform when the train started, and that he lost his balance and fell to the ground between the cars. The injured man was hurried to the hospital at Faribault, where surgeons dressed his wounds. It is thought that he sustained internal injuries in addition to other severe injuries to his limbs and head. Mr. Burns was born in Clayton county, near Littleport, July 12, 1876. Nearly all of his life was spent in Clayton county and in the vicinity of Greeley, where the family resided for some sixteen years prior to coming to Manchester. He was in the employ of the Greeley Horse importing company for many years, and was one of Mr. Holbert's most reliable and trustworthy young men. Dr. T. J. Burns, upon receipt of the sad intelligence, went to Faribault, and brought the remains to Greeley. Funeral services were held from the Catholic church at Greeley on Monday forenoon, and interment made in the cemetery near that city. Mr. Burns is survived by his mother, Mrs. Mary Burns; two sisters, Mrs. John Beohm of Greely and Mrs. Roy Atkinson, of Manchester; and three brothers; Dr. T. J. Burns and James Burns, of this city, and John Burns of Hopkinton. Friends of the family in this city extend to them heartfelt sympathy in this hour of deep affliction. Manchester Democrat - Manchester, Iowa - February 19, 1913
