Daniel Wingert and his son were treated by Dr. George B. Kunkel, surgeon for the Reading Railroad, and Dr. I Lav erty, who were hurried to the scene of the accident on the Gettysburg and Harrisburg tram which leaves Harrisburg about 9 o'clock, but which was delayed this morning in order to take the two surgeons to the spot where the accident occurred. 1 Dr.

all. I nearly fainted with terror." Milk train No. 65, pulled by engine No. 593, happened to be late this morning and did not reach the crossing until a little before 9. Ordinarily it is due there at 8.02.

There is a sta tion only a short distance below, where the train is accustomed to stop, and it was not going at an enormous speed. The curve is not more than a hundred yards from the crossing, and between the time that the driver of the automobile saw the train and the time that would usually be required to shift gear3 and start, in the opposite direction was not sufficient to avert the accident. The car, a brand new five passenger Pullman, was demolished and glass and upholstery scattered all along the track. The bodies were not horribly mangled, however. A small group of the Brethren in Christ, who in themselves frjrm a very active community at Grantham, where a noodle factory, canning factory and Bible and missionary school form the principal activities of the town, stood around and discussed the accident.

Little was said while the bodies of the victims were covered over with the robes from the machine. GOV.
