McElroy Injured Drilling Cars At Monmouth Junction
Engineer Joseph H McElroy of Pennsylvania Railroad was badly bruised after a telegraph pole near the track struck him while he leaned from the cab for signals at Monmouth Junction. He was taken home to Trenton by passenger train after doctors found no broken bones. A lengthy meeting covered road guttering disputes and bids to stone up gutters, with local officials debating costs and improvements in the village.
