New York, 1895
Robert Sheridan, of Long Island City, an employee in the freight yards of the Long Island railroad, had his right hand cut off Wednesday morning. He was about to get under a freight car and had placed his hand upon the track. The train started and before he could withdraw the hand, it was caught under a wheel of the car.
—The Long Island Farmer, Jamaica, NY, June 14, 1895, p. 8.
