Funeral services for Albert Franklin Wilson, who was killed July 4th, near Cleveland, Ohio, when an automobile in which he was riding collided with a fast New York Central train, was condicted Monday afternoon from Brushy Fork Baptist Church, interment being made in the Brushy Fork Cemetery. The service was conducted by Reverend Will O. Gordon, D. D., and was attended by one of the largest crowds ever seen at a funeral in this county. The floral offerings were profuse and very beautiful. Information received by relatives here is that Mr. Wilson, in company with a young lady were driving out in the country, some 40 miles from Cleveland. They had driven up up to a grade crossing and waited for a freight train to pass; a car in front passed over the track and waved to Mr. Wilson to stop, but he failed to see the warning, and a fast train coming in the opposite direction from which the freight was moving, hit the automobile, completely demolishing it and killing both occupants. Mr. Wilson was 22 years of age, the son of Mr. ans Mrs. J. Frank Wilson of Vilas, and besides his parents is survived by four brothers and one sister. Watauga Democrat, July 12, 1928, Page 1
