Paul Lund, a Burlington brakeman, was knocked unconscious atop a box car under a De Soto bridge. He awoke in snow near Stoddard as train continued, suffering a bad scalp wound. Dr. T H Miller treated him and he later recovered enough to move about. The snow likely kept him from sliding off the car.
