A Fatal Sleep Laredo,
Tex., Jan. 2 – A telegram was received here today from Aguilares on the
lines of the Texas Mexican railway in Eucinal county, announcing the
death of Private Lynch of Troop K, Third Cavalry, commanded by Captain
hunter, now in the field after revolutionists in the lower
country. It occurred accidentally. The troops were
on the move, and Private Lynch was driving a mule team attached to one
of the large supply wagons. He went to sleep, fell off the lead
mule and the wagon ran over his head, crushing it and causing almost
instant death.
