Noble conductor aids destitute man in railroad aid tale
A Cedar Falls depot incident tells of a destitute New Jersey man who, after learning his half fare to Dubuque was denied, recounted a harrowing Minnesota Indian raid that killed his wife and children and abducted his youngest daughter. Conductor Cawley organized a train collection and helped the man reach New Jersey, with railway staff praised for their generosity and humanity.
