There was a bad freight wreck near Rowlesburg, W. Va., at a very early hour yesterday morning, an extra freight colliding with fast freight No. 97, which was just pulling into Rowlesburg. There were three persons killed, one of whom, Jacob William Gerlach, aged 30, a brakeman, belonged to Cumberland. The other two were W. E. Hamill, 24, brakeman, Keyser, W. Va., and Martin J. Fallon, engineer, who it is supposed to have been killed, as he is missing, and his body is presumed to be under the wreckage. He lived at Piedmont, W. Va., and is 40 years old. He was last seen on the running board of his engine, about two miles east of the point of the collision. The train was then making lightning speed and was beyond the control of the crew. If he jumped, he may have landed in the creek, which borders the railroad at that point. If he escaped he may be lying injured at some isolated point. The accident was due to an extra freight drawn by engine 1843 in charge of Conductor S. M. Bartlett of Keyser and Engineer M. J. Fallon, of Piedmont. The train was picked up at Piedmont. It contained 11 loads of coal and several other cars of merchandise. They left Piedmont at 2:18 Sunday morning, when the train reached the summit of Cranberry grade the fireman states that the air was tried on the engine and found to be in good working order. While the train was going down the grade, the engineer blew for the signal at Rodamer and received a clear block at McMillian. As they passed, the train got beyond control. Fifth 97 westbound had just cleared McMillian when the extra train crashed into the rear of 97. Upon striking the front, freight cars were hurled in all directions. Fourteen cars were thrown into the creek. Eleven were steel cars loaded with coal, one contained apples, and one empty. The caboose also went over. All three tracks were blocked, but a siding track was opened in two hours. In rapid succession, the other tracks were opened. The debris had not all been cleared late last night. Division Superintendent F. B Blaser, who went to the scene of the wreck, said the property damage would amount to $2,500 and the damage to freight, $350. The bodies of both Hamill and Gerlach were taken from under the wreckage. Gerlach's body was brought to his home on Knobley street, this city, yesterday evening. He leaves a wife and two small children. He was a son of Jacob Gerlach of Cumberland. At one time Mr. Gerlach engaged at the printing trade in this city. All the tracks were opened bv noon yesterday. Eight empties and the caboose of the runaway train were not thrown over the embankment. No one on the front train was killed. The two brakemen of the rear train lost their lives while out on the train trying to stop it. Had they been back in the caboose where it is customary for brakemen to ride, they would not have been killed. That Engineer Fallon was trying desperately to save his train was shown, when after having gone four miles in the wild flight he blew for the block at Rodamer and answered when it was given him. He, however, ran past the block and it is thought had hoped to reach a level stretch of a mile and would stop in striking an incline. Engine er Fallon was well known in Cumberland, where he had many friends. He often visited this city. There were many expressions of sympathy yesterday for the families of the men whose lives went out while heroically in pursuit of duty. Mr. Gerlach's funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from Zion Reformed church, North Liberty street. The Evening Times, Cumberland, November 4, 1907

A SAD DEATH ~ Mr. George Gillespie, A Most Estimable Young Man, Dies Saturday Night Mr. George Gillespie died Saturday night about 11 o'clock at the residence of Mr. Frank Laing on Fayette street. The deceased was in his twentieth year, and was well and favorably known. Honorable and upright in every respect, he stood high in the estimation of his employers, and his untimely death has caused sorrow among a host of friends. For several years he was in the employ of Mr. K. H. Butler, after which he was employed as a bookkeeper for Mr. Frank B. Jenvey, successor to the late firm of A. Shriver & Co., which position he filled until his health compelled him to quit work, and seek some means whereby his health might be improved. With the hope of bringing this about he went to Florida but failed to receive any benefit. When he returned to Cumberland those who knew him realized that it was only a question of a few weeks before that deadful disease, consumption, would carry him off. Not long ago the young man lost his mother, who, it is said, was the only near relative that he had on earth. Mother and son fairly worshipped each other, and her death so preyed upon him that it no doubt hastened his death. Being compelled to take to his bed some six weeks or more ago, he sank rapidly until death relieved him of his suffering. Mr. and Mrs. Laing were faithful in their attendance, and the young man received every attention and had all done for him that was possible, yet they could not stay the hand of death. The funeral took place this afternoon from SS. Peter & Paul' s church, and the interment was made in the cemetery connected with that church. The floral offerings were many and quite handsome. The funeral cortege was a large one. The following gentlemen acted as pall bearers, viz: Messrs. E. Earl Graeff, Wm. Fredericks, Ottis Jewitt, Louis Miller, Richard Beall and E. P. McKenna.

Sploch, of the Maryland State Police, who investigated, said that Gilmore, driving Moran's 1951 hardtop convertible, had just rounded a bend and apparently was confused by the headlights of another vehicle parked along Gilmore's side of the road. Apparently thinking the recently relocated road lay to the right of the headlights, Gilmore swerved off the road onto a gravel shoulder. By the time he realized his mistake, it was too late to stop. The car skidded several hundred feet, careened back to the road, and smashed against the front of the parked car. Four of the victims were thrown from the car with only Earl Kalbaugh and Richard Michael still in the back seat. Sploch said all of the dead except Charles Kalbaugh died instantly. Witnesses said Kalbaugh called for help then crawled under a fence at the George M. Barton farm and died of internal injuries. Dr. H. V. Deming, deputy county medical examiner, said the others died of skull fractures, internal injuries and neck fractures. James. F. Thompson , the sixth occupant, was thrown from the vehicle and later was moved to Sacred Heart hospital, Cumberland, where he is recovering from his injuries. Occupant of Parked Car Hurt. Miss Joreetta Proudfoot , 21, of Rowlesburg, the only occupant of the parked car, sustained severe lacerations of the face and eyes when her head was thrown through the windshield by the impact. She told police she had been drowsy and thought she was dreaming when she saw the other car careening wildly towards her. Lewis H. Allwine, 24, of Highland, N. J., operator of the parked car, stated that he and his brother, Ernest, had pulled off to the left side of the road when they were flagged by Wilbur Fresh, a stranded motorist, of Akron, O., who had developed engine trouble. Gilmore's wife, Mrs. Betty Guy Gilmore, arrived at the scene of the accident about two hours later, unaware of her husband's death. Police said she was anxious over her husband's failure to return home and she stopped at the scene as officers were preparing to leave." The Herald, Piedmont, West Virginia, Thu 4 Sep 1952

Mrs. Gnegy was also a charter member of the Oak Park Church of the Brethren. She was a longtime Sunday school teacher and a deaconess, and helped with numerous other activities of the church. Serving the Lord was a very important part of her life, and she instilled the love to serve the Lord and help others in each and every member of her family, from the oldest to the youngest.

My prayer has prevailed, and this moment I know, the blood is applied, I am whiter than snow." After yea rs of hard work and loving her family, Jessie’s prayer has prevailed, and she is whiter than snow. Friends were received at David A. Burdock Funeral Home, Oakland.

300-Game Winner Lefty Grove Dies Robert Moses "Lefty" Grove, generally considered the greatest left-handed pitcher in baseball history, is dead. The 75-year-old Grove, a native of Lonaconing, MD., died Thursday while watching television at the home of his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Robert G. Grove, where be had lived for 14 years. The funeral service and burial will take place at the Frostburg, Md., Memorial Cemetery on Monday. One of the giants of an era that also included Babe Ruth, Rogers Hornsby and Jimmy Foxx, Grove, a member of baseball's Hall of Fame, led the American League in victories and won-lost percentage four times each, in strikeouts seven times and in earned-run average nine times. He was the star pitcher for Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics teams, which broke the dynasty of the Ruth-led Yankees in the late 1920s and won successive pennants in 1929-30-31. He prided himself on the fact that he yielded only nine homers to Babe Ruth in 10 seasons. Grove had a 4-2 record in World Series competition but is best remembered for his smoking fast ball— with temper to match— and his remarkable consistency. He won 20 or more games in eight seasons, had successive 28-5 and 31-4 records in 1930 and 1931 for a composite 59-9 for the two seasons and finished his career with a lifetime 300-140 mark good for a .682 percentage. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., in 1947. Warren Spahn and Eddie Plank are the only other left handers in the game's history who won 300 or more games. Grove, a star for Baltimore of the International League for five seasons during a period when the Orioles' famous club owner, Jack Dunn, paid major league salaries, was purchased by the Athletics for $100,000 in 1925. One of four sons of a coal miner, Lefty entered organized baseball with Martinsburg in the Blue Ridge League in 1920 and went to Baltimore in the International League the next season. Always a fierce competitor, Grove sometimes refused to speak to his teammates for days after a losing game and at times ripped up clubhouse furniture after a defeat. He mellowed in his old age and was a frequent visitor to Cooperstown where he regaled young reporters with tales of a bygone era. Grove is survived by one daughter, two sisters, one brother, a granddaughter and three great granddaughters. His son, Robert, died in 1972.

GROVER, W. A.

(see also HAWKINS & SHAFFERMAN) Two, one of Cumberland, were killed, and a third so badly scalded that he died before he could be removed from the scene, in a collision between a light engine and a runaway string of freight cars on the B&O railroad at Rowlesburg, W. Va., seven miles east of Grafton, early this morning. Engineer Shafferman, of Newburg, instantly killed. Flagman Herbert Hawkins, of Springdale street, Cumberland, taken dead from the wreckage. W. A. Grover, of Newburg, fireman on Shafferman's engine, so badly scalded that he died at 12:40 o'clock, this afternoon. The flesh was literally cooked on Grover's body. The physicians feared to attempt his removal to the Grafton hospital, so he lay near the scene of the wreck until his death. When taken from the wreckage early this morning, physicians said Glover could live but a few minutes, but his wonderful stamina and nerve kept him alive for hours, though he suffered the most intense torments of pain. The three men constitute the crew of engine No. 1838, which was running light, carrying only a caboose. The engine was following a train up the grade, drawn by engines Nos. 1824 and 1844. It is thought that a coupling of the freight broke about 30 cars from the rear. The broken portion of the train did not hold its automatic brake pressure, but started backward down the hill. The crew of the broken freight got to safety, but the men on the following engine had no warning until the runaway cars hurried into them, going at terrific speed. The 30 cars were badly wr ecked, the locomotive reduced almost to junk and the tracks seriously damaged. The westbound track was opened at 11:30 o'clock this morning and the eastbound track was cleared at 1:20 this afternoon. A rigid investigation is already being pushed by the railroad. It is the worst wreck the B&O has had on the west end in years. No official report has been filed.
