A short obituary in the Nov.1922 issue of the Sante Fe Magazine reads as follows:
The tragic death of Claud Franklin Fairchild one morning while on duty on Sept. 29, 1922. It is assumed he slipped and fell under the wheels of a train severing both legs. He was taken to German Deacons Hospital. He peacefully passed away the following evening. Mr. Fairchild entered the service of the Sante Fe on July 25, 1913. He was a member of the Masonic Order, the Elks, Order of the Railroad Conductors, and a social member of the B.R.T. Burial will be at Paw Paw, Michigan. Albert "Budgie" Howatt heard the cry of distress and was the first there to help with vauable first aid.
