Death from a Jump. --An engineer, named McFarland, while running a freight train on the Orange and Alexandria railroad Tuesday, lost his life from a rather singular cause.--While the train was in motion, near Warrenton depot, he observed a hawk sitting on the track a short distance ahead, and supposing it a broken rail, which would probably wreck the train, leaped from his engine to escape the impending danger. The leap proved as fatal as the accident he feared could have been, for the unfortunate man was instantly killed, his neck being broken in the fall. This occurrence is another proof of the danger of jumping from a train while in motion.-- Lynchburg Republican.
