New York, 1895
Thomas Barnes, Jr., a son of Thomas Barnes, a driver of a horse car at Huntington, was crushed to death Friday morning under his father's car. As the father neared his home on his car, the child ran out of the yard to give him the usual morning greeting. He made a spring for the front platform, but his foot slipped and he fell under the front wheel of the car, which passed over his head, killing him instantly.
