MANGLED BODY OF BOY FOUND
Unidentified Lad of Fourteen Years Met Horrible Fate

Remains Were Buried on Right of Way of Trinity and Brazos Valley Railway Near Tomball
On the right of way of the Trinity and Brazos railway, near the town of Tomball is located, only a few feet from  the tracks a newly made grave in which rests the body of a fair-haired, blue-eyed boy of 14 years, whose life was ground out beneath the wheels of a locomotive during the darkness of the night.  The resting place of the boy is marked by a rough pine board on which is penciled the inscription, "Unknown."
Last Friday morning the boy was found lying beside the railroad tracks cold in death.  His form was badly mangled, his clothes torn, every circumstance telling the story - killed by the train.   No letter, papers or any possible means of identification were found among his possessions.  No information could be found to tell the story of his life, his residence, his parents or his destination.  Only the lifeless body of a boy of tender years, unknown, without money and without friends, greeted a coroner who was summoned to hold an inquest over the body.  The coroner made an investigation and rendered a verdict in keeping with the above facts.
Without funds to defray funeral expenses, the question of the burial was soon solved.  The matter was taken in hand by the railway company and a casket purchased from C.F. Hoffman, a merchant of Tomball.  A shallow grave was dug near where the body was found and the burial held.  The same shovels that made substantial the tracks on which the life of the boy was ground out moulded into shape the mound of newly turned clay which covered his body.  It was but the work of a short time, the rough pine board was put into place, the task was accomplished.
The report of the accident was received in Houston Monday when the story was told to Deputy Chief of Police, C.W. Heck by C.F. Hoffman.  Mr. Hoffman stated that there was no information to be obtained as the identity of the boy, and that the matter was handled by the railroad company through their Tomball agent, C.C. Lane.

GOLD RING USED TO IDENTIFY BODY
A small gold ring on the hand of Fred Lloyd Wiley, killed on the Trinity & Brazos Valley near Tomball, Texas, and buried nearby last July, established the identity of the body when it was disinterred.  It was brought here by George Carroll, president of the Ft. Worth Undertaking Co., and forwarded to Tioga, Texas Friday for burial.
The ring was turned over to the mother, Mrs. M.A. Wiley, 812 East Bluff Street, Ft. Worth.

NEWSY MAY SOLVE OLD DEATH MYSTERY; MOTHER CLAIMS BOY
Victim of Tomball Accident, Buried on Roadside, Believed Fred Wiley.

The story of a Dallas newsboy told by chance to D.A. Dunn, president of the Dallas Newsboys' Association May clear the mystery of a fair-haired boy last summer at Tomball, Texas.
The dead boy may prove to be the son of Mrs. M.A. Wiley, 815 East. Bluff street, Ft. Worth.
On notification of Mr. Dunn, Mrs. Wiley went to Dallas Tuesday to investigate the story.  She is practically certain that the boy killed at Tomball was her son, Fred, who left home 9 months ago.  Mrs. Wiley is still in Dallas.

BODY IS MANGLED
Early on the morning of Friday, July 28, the badly mangled body of a blue-eyed, fair-haired boy of 13 or 14 years was found beside the railroad track near Tomball, Texas.  The body was terribly crushed, and the clothing torn, every circumstance telling the story - killed by a train.
No letter or any possible means of identification was found on the person of the dead boy.  No information could be found at that time to tell the story of the boy's life, residence, parents or destination.  After a brief search for information and a fruitless one, the body of the boy was buried in a crude pine box casket in a shallow grave beside the railroad track. The coffin was furnished by the railway company and the grave marked with a pine board with the word "Unknown" written upon it.
Though the circumstances of the boy's death was investigated thoroughly by another Ft. Worth woman who believed the dead boy to be her brother, no new light was thrown upon the mystery.  It was not until the story of the boy's death and his name to Mr. Dunn Tuesday that any definite information has been afforded.

STORY OF DALLAS NEWSY
The Dallas newsboy claims that he was a companion of Fred Wiley and that they were traveling together when the accident occurred. The Dallas newsboy did not stop in Tomball at the time to tell anything about the happening.
Immediately following the appearance of the newspaper stories about the death of the unknown boy, Mrs. J.L. Ratigan, 315 East Third street, convinced that the boy killed by the train was her brother, began an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the death.  The investigation terminated, however, when Harry appeared in Ft. Worth sound and well.  Since then nothing has been done to establish the identity of the boy buried beside the railroad at Tomball, until the present investigation.

DEATHS
Newsboy's Body To Be Brought Home,
Remains of Fred Wiley Will be Buried at Tioga, Texas

The body of Fred Lloyd Wiley, 14, who was killed at July 28, 1912, on the Trinity & Brazos Valley and buried on the right-of-way 4 miles from Tomball, Texas is to be disinterred and brought to Ft. Worth by the Ft. Worth Undertaking Company.  It will then be forwarded to Tioga, Texas, for burial.
George Carroll, president of the undertaking company, will leave tonight for Tomball, accompanied by M.B. Simpson, attorney for the boy's mother, Mrs. M.A. Wiley, 812 East Bluff Street.  The Wiley boy disappeared last summer and nothing was heard of him until last week.

REBURIED AT TIOGA
Tioga Boy Was Killed by Train Near Houston

The following is of interest here.  Mrs. Wiley having resided in Tioga and is also well known in Sherman.  The story is from today's Ft. Worth Record.
Mrs. M.A. Wiley, 812 East Bluff Street, fell fainting to the floor of a darkened room at the Ft. Worth Undertaking Company yesterday morning when left alone at her own request beside the coffin of her little son, Freddie Lloyd, who was killed July 28 while riding a Trinity & Brazos Valley excursion train.
Undertaker George Carroll, who disinterred the body from its obscure resting place in Tomball cemetery and brought it to Ft. Worth Thursday night, refused to allow the mother to look upon the decomposed body of her son.
"Then just let me be alone with the coffin a little while," she asked.  The attendants withdrew from the room and a minute later they heard her fall to the floor.  She was revived within a few minutes and was very calm during the trip to Tioga, where the body was reburied.
When Undertaker Carroll transferred the body of young Lloyd at Tomball, near Houston, from a crude wooden coffin to a steel-lined casket that he had taken with him, he removed a ring from a finger of the right hand and recovered a cap that had been buried with it.  These trinkets he gave the mother yesterday morning.  She identified the ring immediately, but declared that she couldn't remember the cap.
"But I know it is Freddie; there's no chance for a mistake," she sobbed.
Young Lloyd ran away from home early last summer, and, with a companion of his own age, Duke Matthews of Dallas, tried to "beat" a ride into Houston beneath a Trinity & Brazos Valley excursion train.  He was unable to keep his grip on the blind baggage and fell beneath the wheels and was crushed to death.  His companion could make no movement to aid him.
Young Matthews came to Ft. Worth about 3 weeks ago and told Mrs. Wiley of the tragedy and she immediately took steps to have the body disinterred.

BOY KILLED NEAR TOMBALL IS KNOWN
Mother Begged to See Child Once More When Body Reached Fort Worth

(Houston Post Special)
Fort Worth, Texas, December 19 - "I want to look upon his face just once more before you put him away forever.  Won't you please let me see him!"
This was the tearful appeal that Mrs. M.A. Wiley, 812 East Bluff street, made at the Fort Worth Undertaking Company tonight when the body of Freddie Lloyd, whom she believes is her 14-year-old son, who was mangled beneath a Trinity and Brazos Valley passenger train near Tomball last July, was received.
But the undertakers would not allow the mother to view the body.  They told her to return tomorrow morning, when they would have had time to prepare it.
Last summer Freddie Lloyd, who was a son of Mrs. Wiley by a former marriage, ran away from his home in Fort Worth.  He had been a newsboy on the streets here for many years and he dreamed of fortunes later.  Making his way to Galveston with a companion, Duke Matthews, he undertook to beat a ride on a Trinity and Brazos Valley excursion train.  But shortly after the excursion left Tomball, Freddie's hold on the blind baggage loosened and he was cut to pieces beneath the swiftly moving train.  Young Matthews could make no move to save him, else his own life would have been forfeited.

Companion Told the Story
Unidentified, the boy was buried in Tomball by the railroad company.  A few weeks ago the wandering companion of the unfortunate youth came to Fort Worth and told the mother of her son's death.
The body was removed from its obscure resting place and tonight it was received by the Fort Worth Undertaking Company.
In the undertaking parlor the mother sobbed as if her heart would break when the undertakers brought the rude coffin into the building.
"Let me see him," she cried, but the undertakers gently led her away.

Will Open Coffin Today
"We can't open the coffin until morning." said George Carroll, who made the trip to Tomball to disinter the body.  "I know that  is he - there isn't any doubt of that, but a mother can't help but have a spark of hope in her bosom, hoping against hope." she said.  "There might have been some awful mistake."
"But I will surely know him when I see him.  I remember the little cap he wore away.  They tell me he had it on when he started that fateful journey on the excursion train.   And he also had a ring - I am sure that could not have been misplaced."
The body will be interred in a cemetery, 3 miles from Tioga, the home of Mrs. Wiley's husband.

Fears Set At Rest
Many South Texas Parents Thought Lad Might Be Theirs

The identification of the boy who met death last July beneath the wheels of a passenger train at Tomball, a station on the Trinity and Brazos Valley Railway, about 28 miles north of Houston, has set at rest the fear of many a parent in South Texas, and particularly in Houston, who was inclined to believe that it was none other than their own child who had met with such a tragic death.
When the body of the boy was first discovered and buried within a few feet of where he was ground to death, dozens of mothers and fathers with absent boys came to the office of The Post to view a picture of the boy taken only a few minutes before he was laid away as an unknown.

Noted in the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram below, Mrs. Wiley took an extended visit in Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee.  Her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Stout of Jonesville, Virginia accompanied her daughter back to Texas. ("Notes and Personals. The Ft. Worth Star-Telegram.  Tuesday, August, 1913; pg. 10)
In 1914 Mamie A. Wiley, widow of J.E. Wiley, resided at 821 East Bluff (U.S. City Directory.  Ft. Worth City Directory, 1914)



Mamie married Alto Morris, who was a railroad conductor; she, Alto and son, Clarence Lloyd, were living in San Mateo, California.  In 1929 Alto V. Morris and wife, Mamie are living in Hayward, California at 597 Smalley Avenue. (Hayward, California 1919 City Directory)  The next year the Oakland, California City Directory lists Alvo V. Morris, a salesman, and wife, Mamie living at 6237 Hilton, Oakland, California. 
Alto Morris died February 22, 1933 in Oakland, California.
Mamie moved from California to live with her sister, Nannie Bird Stout Stapleton.  She died September 24, 1952 and is buried in Cecil Fry Cemetery, next to each Nannie in Pennington Gap, Lee Co., Virginia.  Mamie's first husband, James Franklin Loyd is also buried in Cecil Fry Cemetery but hundreds of feet from Mamie. He died in January 1933; he was born and raised in Lee Co., Virginia.
