[obit] Aged Man Fatally Hurt
Joseph McCarter Is struck By Northwestern Road Switch Engine on North
Division St., Crossing, Is Removed to Hospital and Dies of Injuries a Few
Hours Later.
While crossing the railroad sidetrack on North Division street last night about
4:50 o'clock, Joseph McCarter, 729 North Division street, aged 80 years, was
struck by a switch engine of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad and
sustained injuries which caused his death at St. Elizabeth's hospital a few
hours later.  Mr. McCarter was on  his way home at the time and as he started
to cross the tracks, Michael Goode, the flagman stationed at the crossing
noticed the approaching train and shouted to him to stop, but the aged man
evidently failed to hear him and kept on his way.  Before Mr. Goode could
reach him, Mr. McCarter had been struck and thrown violently to the ground.
The engine was going south from the stock yards and was going very slowly
at the time and came to a stop within a few feet of where it struck the
unfortunate man.  The police ambulance was called immediately and the
injured man was taken to St. Elizabeth's hospital where an examination of his
injuries revealed a broken leg, fractured shoulder and badly bruised back and
head.  These with the shock and his advanced years caused his death at 7:30
o'clock last evening.
The deceased has been a resident of Appleton for many years and was well
known.  He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. B. Drew, Bloomville, Wis., Miss
Carrie McCarter Appleton; three sons, John of Appleton, Charles of Shawano;
and Roy of this city.
The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from the late
residence at 729 North Division street.  Interment will be made at Riverside
cemetery.
