CLARK, Edward
B&O Fireman Edward Clark, running on west bound passenger train 55, was seriously injured Sunday afternoon at Rawlings Station, when in the act of observing the target signal, he was hit in the face by a loose car door on a train 96 going east. Clark was struck a fearful blow in the face, hurling him across the cab, the back of his head striking the reverse bar of engine No 2141, his body almost knocking Engineer Sinclair from his seat.
The train was stopped, and the injured fireman, bleeding profusely, was lifted out and taken to the baggage car, in a semi-conscious condition. Attention was given him by the crew with such means at hand, and the train was hurried to Keyser and Mr. Clark removed to the Hoffman Hospital.
Mr. Clark was about 26 years of age, married and lived at the corner of First St and Grand Ave, Cumberland. He was a native of Preston Co, W. Va., his family living near Terra Alta. He was well known among trainmen on the Third division by the soubriquet of "Happy." The injured man showed wonderful fortitude, and nerve and soon recovered consciousness, and conversed with his wife, who went to his bedside in the hospital Sunday night.
The door after striking Clark a moment later, was torn off by the steel baggage coach of 55's train.
Mr. Clark died of his injuries Tuesday morning and his body was taken to Cumberland that forenoon where he was buried Friday morning. His wife and sister were with him until the end came Tuesday morning.
