THE FLAGLER TRIBUNE
Bunnell, Florida
Thursday, August 17, 1950
Joe Wright, aged Negro of Bunnell, was killed instantly this afternoon in the south section of town by Florida East Coast passenger train No. 30, eye witnesses at the scene said.
The witnesses said the man, who was apparently 75 years of age, was walking from the West to East, colored section of town, crossing the FEC tracks along a footpath when he was struck. Enginemen said the man started across, hesitated in the middle of the track and then started back the way he came, apparently becoming excited and confused.
