Despondent Roxbury Man Ends Life At Railway Yard
Patrick Carney, 30, of Riverside Street Roxbury Crossing, hanged himself in a New Haven and Hartford railroad yard coal pocket.

He tied a clothes line to a beam, stood on a car fragment, and kicked away the support, planning to delay rescue. Mrs Carney learned of his death as her children remained too ill to be told.
