SLEEP-WALKER'S FATE
While a woman was sleep-walking on the railway track at Cardiff, in Wales, she was cut in half by a train. She was Mrs Rose Daw, aged 62. of Mooreland road, Cardiff, and her husband, a foreman carpenter employed by the Great Western Railway, awoke to find her missing. While he was searching in the garden, at the foot of which runs a railway embankment, a shout came from a railwayman that her body was on the line. She had been run over by a coal train.
