Abstract:
Since 1867 when Joe Baldwin was killed and decapitated by a train accident, multiple stories have been circulated about a strange light appearing, symbolizing Joe looking for his missing head. The accounts vary, but some aspects of the legend stay the same, such as the light, time of appearance, and location.
