Railway Employee Accidentally Killed
Man Had Just Left Cousin’s Wake

Forty minutes after leaving the wake of his cousin, Joseph Lamperti, at Sawyer’s Undertaking Parlors, Narare Ferario**, a blacksmith employed at Sausalito by the Northwestern Pacific Railway, was back in the same building, dead from a compound fracture of the skull. The unfortunate man had been thrown under the electric cars at San Anselmo meeting with death instantly.

Ferario had come into town early in the evening to attend his cousin’s wake. He left here on the 11:15 train to go to his home in San Anselmo. Just before the train reached the station it stopped and Ferario prepared to get off. The train started again and the man slipped, rolling under the moving cars. He died before Dr. J. H. Kuser could reach him. His body was brought into San Rafael.

Ferario had worked at Sausalito in the Northwestern Pacific shops as a blacksmith for over twenty years. He leaves a wife and four children.

**In the Marin County death index the name is Nazaro Ferrari.
