KILLED BY TRUCK

Mrs. Leon Pashley of Edmeston, died Friday evening in Faxton Hospital, Utica, about four hours after she and Mr. Pashley were injured as their car and a truck collided near Cassville. The accident occurred about 4:20 as the auto driven by Mr. Pashley pulled out to pass one truck and skidded into the path of another. It is said Mr. Pashley lost control of his car when he applied brakes to get back into line.

The truck, owned by the Beech-Nut Packing Company and driven by Ernest Reamond of Utica, smashed into the side of the Pashley car and pushed it into a field on the east side of the highway, not far from the upper end of the over head crossing.

Mrs. Pashley suffered multiple lacerations, a fractured right hip, a fractured pelvis and considerable shock. Mr. Pashley was less seriously injured and it is expected he will recover.
