          CRUSHED BY AN ENGINE
          The Awful Fate of Robert Marshall and Wife
          Times-Gazette, June 22, 1895
          Mr. and Mrs. Marshall of Colma were run down by an engine Wednesday morning and both instantly killed, and the double wagon in which they were driving, smashed into splinters but, strange as it may appear, the horses were not injured. They had left their home which is situated a half mile west of Colma station about a quarter to 4 o'clock a. m. on the above morning, intending to go to the city, arriving at the station at 4 o'clock when they were struck by a passing engine going south.
          In consequence of the early hour, no one saw the accident except the engineer, fireman, and a news-carrier for the Examiner. After the collision, the engine was brought to a stand as quickly as possible and run back to where the collision occurred, when the three men picked up the bodies and placed them in a box car.
          Coroner Crowe was wired, and at once responded to the call and took charge of the remains.
          A jury was impaneled and an inquest held and a verdict of accidental death rendered in accordance with the preceding facts, thus exonerating the engineer and fireman of all blame.
          The jury, however, censured the railroad company for allowing its trains to travel crossings at such a high rate of speed as that which the engine was going.
          The real cause of the accident was most probably due to the fact that the frightened woman was seen by the engineer to catch the lines just at the crossing, thus checking the team at the fatal moment which otherwise would have cleared the engine.
          As far as known the unfortunate people have no relatives in this country. Coroner Crowe took the remains to Redwood City for burial. This and ______ has cast a gloom over the entire community.
          The unfortunate man and women were old residents of Colma and were universally respected. It is very probable that a big suit for damages will result from the affair.
