From Ontario Repository and Messenger 22 April 1868
SERIOUS ACCIDENT - Mr. Rody Higgins, a brakeman on Northern Central Railway, residing in this village,
was so severely injured at Penn Yan on Tuesday of last week, that he died from his injuries on Friday. He was
engaged in coupling cars, and in some manner two of them missed connecting, and caught his head between
them, a large nut on a bolt crushing into the side of his head, making an ugly wound. His funeral took place
on Sunday afternoon, and was attended by a large concourse of friends.
