(CAUTION - NOT FOR A WEAK STOMACH!)
The most horrible accident that has ever happened in Forney transpired Sunday night and Miss Joella Bowles was the victim. Several young couples from the country walked to town to attend church Sunday night. After church was dismissed a little after 9 o'clock, they started for home, walking on the railroad tracks. They had proceeded about three-fourths of a mile when they reached the trestle over Mustang Creek and the 9:30 passenger was heard coming. Two couples, including Mr. W.M. Moore and Miss Bowles, were still on the trestle. Miss Bowles wanted to continue across. Mr. Moore said he did not think they could get over in time but agreed to go with her. Before they had gone far they looked and saw the train nearly on them. He jumped and tried to pull her off the track but her foot was fastened and the train struck her. The body was literally cut to pieces and was so mutilated it could not have been recognized. Her brains were scattered all along the track. One of her arms was taken off the engine. The remains were gathered up and placed in a coffin and taken to Terrell Monday for burial.
