Account of Alexander's fatal accident.
from The Townsville Evening Star of 10th May 1897
It is with great regret we have to record a particularly distressing fatality which occurred at Woodstock railway station last Saturday. During the afternoon intelligence was received in Townsville that the Station Master at Woodstock, Mr A. C. McDonald had been killed. On arrival of the 5.30 p.m. particulars were obtained, proving the sad news only too true.
It would appear that the unfortunate official was crossing the buffer of the train and by some means fell between, and part of the train passed over his body. None of the officials, we are informed, actually saw the occurrence.
On Sunday arrangements for the funeral were made, and a special train was run from Townsville at 1 p.m., conveying the District Traffic Manager, Mr Minehan, District Superintendent, Inspector Doorey, Mr Mitchell and a large number of the Railway employees. On arrival at Woodstock the coffin was carried from the deceased’s late residence to the train by six of the station masters, and on arrival at Toonpan, where the interment took place, from the train to the place of burial. The service was conducted by the Rev. Mr Williams.
It was evident from the large concourse of district residents present that Mr McDonald was held in very high esteem. Very handsome wreaths were sent by the station masters, guards, engine drivers and firemen. The Railway Department loses by this deplorable accident one of the best officers on the Northern Railway, and his demise is deeply regretted by all his fellow employees. A son of Mr McDonald’s rode 90 miles, after receipt of a wire, arriving just in time to take a last look at his father. He left Dotswood at 11 p.m. on Saturday and arrived at Woodstock at 3 p.m. next day. The heartiest sympathy is felt for the bereaved widow and other members of the deceased’s family.
