Inscription transcription

Phillip LLOYD, a miner living at the Fayette mine, near Noblestown was struck by a coal train between Oakdale and his home on Monday night and fatally injured. He had been at McDonald in the evening and as the nine train East does not stop at Noblestown he went on to Oakdale and was walking back home along the railroad when he was struck by a train coming West. He was brought on to McDonald where he was attended by Drs. MILLER, LA ROSS and TAYLOR, and sent to a Pittsburgh hospital where he died at noon Tuesday. He leaves a wife and family at Noblestown.

The original submission gives no newspaper name, issue date, or year — the death is dated only as "noon Tuesday" after a Monday-night accident, so no death date (not even a year) can be recorded. The places named (Noblestown, Oakdale, McDonald, Pittsburgh) suggest western Pennsylvania, but the state is not stated in the text.
