Simeon Taylor Webb, born McComb, was the fireman on Casey Jones's fatal run. Casey shouted, "Jump, Sim, Jump!" seconds before the Illinois Central's Cannonball Express plowed into the rear of a freight train near Vaughn, Mississippi, on the night of April 30, 1900. Sim received a settlement of $5.00 from the ICRR for body bruises caused from jumping off Engine 382.
