Heroic rescue and engagement amid West Shore wreck
In St Louis on December 24 a romance formed from a dramatic train wreck on October 10. Jey J Shepherd rescued passengers including Miss Helen Miller Gould, whose calm nursing and admiration sparked their engagement. President Bush of Missouri Pacific aided the trip, and a private car concealed danger as a rear coach was added. The crash, caused by a westbound freight wreck, left lights out and panic, but Gould treated the injured while Shepherd freed the engineer and confessed his love afterward.
