Rock Springs Miner no. 12 March 20, 1915
CHARLES ROGAN MEETS WITH FATAL ACCIDENT
An unusual accident occurred shortly after one o’clock on Thursday afternoon, causing the death of Charles A. Rogan.
Charlie was at work near the electric light plant loading some heavy car lumber 2x12 and sixteen feet long from a pile onto a wagon. While stopping to pick up a plank the pile toppled over onto him, striking him on the back and breaking his neck. When found he was still standing on his feet, but his body had been bent forward by the blow. Death was evidently instantaneous.
The deceased was the son of the late Patrick Rogan and was born at old Fort Laramie, July 15th, 1885. He came to Rock Springs with his parents when two years old and had spent almost his entire life in this community, where he had a great many friends.
He leaves four brothers, James, George, John and Frank Rogan; and three sisters, Mrs. John L. Reynolds, Mrs. Jesse James and Miss Mamie Rogan. The funeral services will be held at the South Side Catholic church next Monday morning at ten o’clock, the cortege leaving the home of Mrs. Jesse James at 9:30.
