Darlington March 1- The body of Glen BOSLER, who was killed in the PA yards yesterday morning arrived here last night at 9:15 and was taken to the home of his mother. The funeral will be from the home Thursday morning at 10 o'clock and services will be in charge of the Rev. Nicely. Officials of the RR who accompanied the body here from Ft. Wayne will act as pall bearers and the burial will be at the Odd Fellows cem. The fist report received here that Bosler had been almost cut in two by the weight of the two cars proved to be false as there were practically no marks on the body when it arrived last night. The men who accompanied the body here from Ft. Wayne say that the brakeman who was the first to discover the accident saw Bosler clinging to the car and that he lived for two hours. The weight of the two cars had crushed the life out of him but left no marks. - transcribed by kbz
