Danville, Ill., Aug. 10—Wednesday evening two more bodies were dug out of the Big Four wreck. They were bodies of unemployed men who were beating their way over the road. One was William Cross, a bricklayer, 40 years old, who worked last at Decatur, Ill. The other was an old soldier named Andrew Wallace, who at one time lived in Danville. His family resides in Peoria. He was 56 years old and a tailor by occupation. It is believed that two or three more bodies are lying at the bottom of the wreckage near the water’s edge - thanks "S"
