Mr. Friatz was 62 years of age and uunli'vin,t. The deceased with others was en- gaged in drawing gravel from the, near the crossing for road week. The driver of the team ahead of him tried, to warn him of the approaching train but it is supposed the noise of the state crusher. which was operating near the tracks, prevented Frietz from hearing either the shouts- or the train, while apparently hi.; attention was centered on the man ahead to the extent tilt he tiled to observe the train. Pei"tz is 1. •• •r (, hr. somewhat deaf. Frietz was formerly of Elmira, but had been working for Ht.nry Lorelr, farmer of Wallace Township, for a- bout a year. He was driving Mt.
