HARTMONSVILLE - We suppose there is not any reasonable doubt but what the man, William Schwarzer, who was run over by the train on the Elk Garden branch some time ago was asleep, notwithstanding the jury of inquest rendered a verdict of murder. We have the information from good authority that a man passing by saw the man lying on the track and wanted to help him up, but he refused to go, and told the man to let him alone, for he knew what he was doing. This man was the last man, so far as we know, that saw him alive. Now we are not trying to get any controversy through the papers, but we have written for the purpose of trying to make plain to the public the sad death of this unfortunate young man, and to try to clear up that which has been a mystery to many ever since it occurred.
