Obituary: Very sudden & very sad indeed was the death of Ernest McCutcheon, late of 115 Oxford Street of Woodstock, Ont., who was struck by a G. T.P. freight train about 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 10th & instantly killed.
Mr. McCutcheon was an employee of the Canada Furniture Manufacturers Ltd., working in the shipping room & had the usual half-holiday on Saturday. Taking advantage of the fine weather, he went to the woods just west of the city to gather ferns & having got a good supply, he was returning home when the accident occurred. It is supposed that he was crossing the tracks, almost where they cross, train coming from the west & he stepped out of its tracks, not seeing the train from the east which struck him. He was rather deaf & probably did not hear both trains. According to those at work near that point, the engine was whistling a warning before it got to him, but he walked on without noticing it. He was terribly mangled, having both arms & legs cut off, & his skull fractured. The inquest over the body was opened on Saturday evening at 8 p.m. when the jury empanelled viewed the remains & adjourned until Wednesday evening when evidence will be taken.
The death of Ernest McCutcheon has caused widespread sorrow in the city. He, with his newly married wife came here almost a year ago, & took up their residence on Oxford Street, where they bought their home. A man of sterling character & fine qualities Mr. McCutcheon soon became a prominent member of Chalmers Church at which he was a most regular attender & few members were as highly esteemed as he. The sympathy of the community goes out to Mrs. McCutcheon, who was terribly shocked when the news of the fatality was broken to her.

Deceased was this morning taken to his former home, Ospringe, where interment will be made. He is survived by his widow, his mother, Mrs. John McCutcheon of Ospringe; 6 brothers, Albert of Ospringe; John & Hiram of Manitoba; Mathias of Grimsby; William of Toronto & Austin of Everton, Ontario; also by 3 sisters, Margaret of Ospringe, Mrs. W. Currie of Michigan & Mrs. Lamont of Buller Street this city.
