When picked up by his fellow workmen life was extinct. Murchison was one of a section gang working on the right of way about six miles east of Arthur and was engaged in. putting in ties. The signal had been given the train, freight No. 90, in charge of Conduct- or Connell, to proceed through the part being worked, and it was fully under way when Murchison noticed that the iron gauge had not been re- moved from the track. He attempted to beat the train to the danger spot, but was unable to dodge the engine before it was upon him. He is sur- vived by his w idow and two sons and jthiee daughters.
