About the History of tho .linn.
Social to the Scranton Tribune.
Plttston, Apt II 19. James J. Slocum,
exywJstmustor of Scranton, and well
known throughout the Wyoming1 nnd
Lackawanna valleys, was struck and
kjlled by. a coal train at 7.43 o'clock
this evening as he was walking'
thmnjrtr a cut on the Lehigh Valley
railroad, ueur, Campbell's ledge, west
of-trrts-iilare.
ust how the accident happened will
ijever be known as Slocum was alone
nt- the time." The train hands, as the
trjilri sped, on at a fast late, felt the
otu-s Jump, as thrj wheels ran over the
ltody. The train was stopped with the
i,d,ea 'that a coupling had disconnected.
UpliiK ,bac,U down the track the truln
crew found' the mangled body of Slo
cum. Life was extinct. The head vvis
Jjarlyjjev.ered from the shouldet.s and
the'lrody Was cat through many times
us It shifted on the rail.
BODY TAKEN TO HIS HOME.
Slocum wan readily recognized as
lie was very well known here. The
body was carried to his home, which
Is but u short distance from the place
of the accident. Nothing more con
cerning the accident or the unfortu
nate man's! doings today can be
learned tonight.
His death has created a sensation
here,, as the olll man was popular with
all classes. A sketch of his eventful
life shows the sterling characteristics
of the Hlocum family which has figured
fio piomlnently In the history of the
two valleys.
He was born rixty-seven years ago
In Exeter township, this county, not
far from his home at the time Of deuth.
As a boy he worked on the farm, the
possession of which goes to his heirs.
It Is situated on the east bank of the
.Susquehanna ilver and Is at present
under lease t a produce company.
During the administration of President
Grant he was appointed postmnster of
the city of Scjanton, and during 'his
regime he lived with James Oakford
of Jefferson avenue, Scranton. He also
nt one time announced his candidacy
for the nomination as state senator nn
the Republican ticket from the Lu
zerne dlstilet and he would probably
have been successful had he not vvitn
drawn a few days prior to the conven
tion. He owned a great amount of
property In Luzerne county, and his
wealth Is estimated to be over $100,000.
WELL KNOWN I1EHE.
The news of the death of James J.
Slocum was leeelvcd In this city last
evening with much sui prise and regret
by his many friends. A mess-ngo was
sent to his sister, Mrs. Frnnels C. Oak
ford, who lives with her son, James
AV. Oakford, at 332 Jefferson avenue,
but .Mrs. Oakford Is serlouly 111 nnd
the sad news was kept from her.
She Is the only siwivlng near rela
tive. William Onkroid. a brother, was
found dead at Plttsum ibout three
years n'o nnd an uncle of Jatnef Slo
cum was killed Ijj n train about eight
years n;:o iii Inchest, -r, Virginia. Ho
has several distant relatives residing
in this clly.
Fi lends of the deceased last evening
in dlf.eusslns Ill's death told many Inci
dents of his life. His wealth did not
cause him to ch'e up his wholesome,
old fashion style of living. I'p to the
time of his death ho appeared in public
iri the gnrb or the old tlnn farmer, his
boots unblackivHl and his clothing
Pimple and usually unkempt. Several
years ago lie donated enough money
to build a churrh In his native town
of Exeter and an Idea of his ideas can
bo obtained from the tact that lie
stipulated In making the sift that It
should lielong to no ono creed or de
nomination but should be used by all.
This church Is tlll In use In Exeter
under the bro.id-mlnd'd plan set down
by James Slocum.
It Is raid he received $20 000 from tho
Lehigh Valley railroad for the light
to run Its Harvey lnke branch, road
through his property In hxetor. The
latest Idea repoited if llr. Slocum vas
that he would build a large hotel In
ICxeter under the brow of the famed
Camrbell'3 ledge.
