Edgar Terry killed at Mendota.
The many friends of Conductor Terry are much grieved over the death of his son Edgar, at Mendota, Minnesota, last Wednesday. He was trying to make a coupling between a pile driver car and another car. The platform on the pile driver car extended too far and young Terry was squeezed between that and the other car. He lived but a few minutes after he was hurt. He was about twenty-three years old.—Calmar Courier.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Oakwood Cemetery in Austin, MN and was born March 21, 1887 and died Feb. 1, 1911
