These are obituaries that I and many others have donated. Mine were transcribed from old newspapers. I got the microfilms through interlibrary loan from the University of Oregon. There are also many others who have donated. If there is no contributor on it, it is something I have transcribed. If there is no link on the contributor's name, they have no further information about that person. It is someone extra on a copy of their families information.
If you have any obituaries you can donate, please drop a line to Janine M. Bork.Your information can help others.
On last Friday night freight train No. 511, westbound, ran into a herd of cattle at Onyx station near Pocatello on the Short Line. Daniel Hill, engineer, Charles Walton, brakeman, and the fireman were killed besides two tramps found in a abox car whose names are unknown. Thirty cars were derailed and the Co. sustains damages amounting to $15,000. Conductor Long and the rear brakeman were the only persons on the train escaping.
