  "Fatal Accident - On Saturday, May 17th, 1902, about noon, Mr. Arthur S. Brown, a son of the late Ira Brown, was accidentally killed on the G. T. Railway some three miles east of Colborne. He was one of the section men working at the place and had occassion to go a short distance for spikes. Being ready to return, he stood on the south track to allow the flyer to pass east on the north track, and, evidently absorbed in watching it, a freight from the east struck him and threw his body as if a ball some forty feet distant off the track. Death of course was immediate. Deceased was in his 24th year, unmarried and resided close by with is sister as housekeeper. He was a good-living fellow, well known and popular in the district, hence his untimely and awfully sudden death commands the grief of the community for his greatly afflicted sister. His kindness towards her was very marked as evidenced by his thoughtfullness in lately joining the Ancient Order of United Workmen, Colborne, and having her named as his beneficiary in a five hundred dollar certificate. She will also be the recipient of his Grand Trunk insurance, $250, we understand. The funeral on Monday was under the auspices of te Workmen, the attendance being good, as was also that of the general public. Interment took place at Salem Cemetery." from Carol Brown's book of news articles, copied at The Cobourg Public Library, Oct. 2001
