Greensboro, Nov. 17—Bernice Sutton was fatally injured and Edward Bagwell paralyzed when the small truck in which they were hauling sand a mile south of Pleasant Garden, Guilford County, was struck by an Atlantic and Yadkin passenger train this afternoon.
Sutton was brought here to a hospital where he died tonight at 8 o’clock. Both legs were cut off and his skull fractured. Injuries to Bagwell were on the spine, resulting in paralysis. He is in a hospital here.
The men evidently did not see the train approaching the grade crossing.
