Ohiopyle, PA Train Accident, May 1907
Posted November 28th, 2007 by Linda Horton
TAKEN TO McKEESPORT
The Body of Edward Lynch, Killed at Ohiopyle, Removed to That place for Burial.
The body of Edward Lynch, who was run over and killed by a train at Ohiopyle several nights ago, after he had been put off train No. 10 there for refusing to pay his fare, was taken to McKeesport yesterday on No. 15. A brother-in-law who lives in that city came to Connellsville yesterday morning and identified the remains.
Lynch was well connected in McKeesport. He was the brother-in-law of G. E. Dale, a prominent and well to do citizen of that place who, several years ago, left on a prospecting trip into British Columbia. Dale became lost and nothing has ever been heard of him since.
The Courier, Connellsville, PA 12 May 1907
