General Notes: Husband - Emanuel Hull




He was a carpenter by trade, but followed farming in connection therewith, and at intervals was in the employ of the Pennsylvania Railroad on special service. It was while so employed that he met his death. The company had a force of men employed in track repairing at Bolivar [Pennsylvania?], the scarcity of help at that time necessitating the employment of inexperienced men and boys. In order to safeguard them from the many passing trains, Mr. Hull was employed as a lookout and guard, so no accidents could occur to them from that danger. At the noon hour a local freight was standing on the track, and while the men were passing alongside, a westbound train pulled in and when directly opposite the local train the engine of the westbound train exploded killing Mr. Hull and five other men and maiming others for life. Two of Mr. Hull's brothers were but a short distance from him, but both miraculously escaped injury.
