Any information about John Rufus Hinds and the Katy Flyer Train wreck at Tanglewood, Texas that killed him and the fireman on May 31, 1900. His age at time of wreck, when he started to work for the Katy and any other information

"A History of Lee County" published in the mid 70's by the Lee County Historical Society (I think) gives a detailed story of the ill-fated train. I'm sure it is at the public library in Giddings.
