Two Caswell Farmers Die After Train Collision
On Thursday afternoon March 26 an eastbound passenger train near Hillsboro struck a wagon at Scarletts crossing seven miles west of Durham, instantly killing Caswell county farmers Me. WA Cooper aged 44 and his nephew RL Boland 21 who had just sold tobacco in Durham. Their bodies were brought to Durham then transported to Mebane for burial. The crossing is on a steep grade and a sharp curve, masking approaching trains. The two men left Durham shortly before the accident with nearly $360 from tobacco sales. The scene was described as a horrible sight with mangled bodies found a few feet from the crossing. The Fancy Grocery also appears in the page and local notices follow.
