  SHUNTER INJURED. SUSTAINS COMPOUND FRACTURE OF THIGH. At about 6.30 this morning a shunter named T. Carmichael, employed at the local railway station, met with a painful accident. He was pulling a wagon with a wire tail-rope and, instead of getting outside, by some unaccountable manner, he got between the wire rope and the wagon and was crushed, sustaining a compound fracture of the thigh. Later, the suffer was removed to the Palmerston North hospital. The unfortunate man, who is married with three children, is about 30 years of age, and resides in Main street west.

Mr Thomas Carmichael, the shunter who was injured at the local railway yards yesterday morning, through being caught on the wrong side of a tail rope, succumbed to his injuries at 8.30 o'clock last evening. Born in Patea in 1890, the late Mr Carmichael came to Palmerston North about two and a half years ago. He was a very prominent member of the local Salvation Army Corps and held the rank of young people's sergeant-major. Several years ago he held commissioned rank in various parts of the Dominion. He was also a member of the Masonic and Oddfellows' Lodges. By a tragic coincidence he met his death on the ninth anniversary of his wedding day. Besides his widow, he leaves three children, two boys aged eight and six and a-half years respectively, and a girl two and a-half years. Source: Manawatu Standard, 4 August 1925, Page 6.
