San Anselmo Man Killed By Train

William F. Tobin, San Anselmo plumber and member of the firm of Daggett & Tobin, was struck and fatally injured Tuesday afternoon when a Northwestern Pacific Manor train crashed into his machine at the Pastori crossing.

Removed to the Emergency hospital here, Tobin was pronounced dead by Dr. J. H. Kuser an hour later. He had suffered a fracture of the skull and internal injuries.

The body was removed to San Francisco, where funeral services and burial will take place.

As far as had been learned by Coroner J. Ray Keaton, who will hold an inquest, there were no witnesses of the accident except the trainmen.
