William A. Holley, 35, engine foreman, saved Sarah A. Griffin, 62, from being run over by a train, Greenville, Texas, January 21, 1914. Mrs. Griffin started to cross a track on which a train was approaching at a speed of 10 m.p.h., when the train was but 15 feet from her. Holley ran 26 feet, met Mrs. Griffin midway between the rails, grabbed her, and carried her off the track without reducing his speed. As he cleared the track with Mrs. Griffin, the end of the bumper-timber of the locomotive brushed his hip. 12484-926
