PutnamManIs Killed BfTre^ List 121 Cases For Fall Term At Courthouse Improve Road To Putts Pond Ronald Mervin Holmes, 33, of Putnam, was killed instantly at about 4 p. m. Tuesday when ftLtree he was felling near Montcalin Landing bounced and the b u t t struck him i n the temple. Dr. John1 Miller of Crown Point, Essex County Coroner, gave a verdict of accidental death.

Snf 11 of the *State ^Police B ; e n at Port HenryTwho investigated, said Holmes was em- ployed*, by the King Paving Cor- poration of Schenectady, which is naking highway repairs to Route 22. Holmesifwas felling a tree on the highwa*y?right-of-way and had sawed almost completely through the butt which was about nine and one^half inches in diameter. All tne passenger cars remained upright, but windows were\smasb> ed and luggage strewn about b y the impact. The two freight ear gdnes lay on their sides, down tfie- embankment to the east. Piled l i k e , jackstraws behind them were 14 cars of the freight, most of them flatcars and empty coal cars, which jackknifed over one another as the train's momentum piled them up. As they spilled over tibe right-of-way ripping up more t h a n 200 yards of track, the car flat- tened telegraph lines and disrupt- ed railroad communications. The freight was rumbling norfli- ward at an estimated speed of 3 5 miles an hour when it slammed head-on into the passenger tram. The Laurentian h a d . stopped qi» time a t P^ort Henry pnly a f e V minutes before, and w a s moving at from three to 10 miles per hour at the time of the crash, after \just clearing a block\ a Short d i s - tance north of the accident scene.
