Frey, age 36, was killed instantly and John Bacon, age 69, died two hours later in the Oakland Hospital as the result of injuries received when the car driven by John Bacon was struck by a gravel truck, Saturday morning. The accident occurred on the Bertha road, three miles east and three miles south of Lyons. The Bacon car was coming from the north and it was about to turn east on the Bertha road when the gravel truck heading east, came down the hill. The gravel truck struck the right front wheel of the Bacon car, throwing the car against the body of the truck. Frey was killed instantly, and received a broken neck and other injuries. Bacon was knocked unconscious by the impact but did not die until about two hours later in the Oakland Hospital. He was badly injured about the head and received severe body injuries. The gravel truck was owned by Orshek & Christensen of Fremont, who are graveling a piece of road in Quinnebaugh township. The truck was driven by Louis Peterson of Cedar Bluffs. The driver stated that he saw the car about 50 feet before the collision but was powerless to stop the truck. The truck was hauling seven yards of gravel which weighed nearly ten ton. After the truck struck the car it went into the ditch and through a fence into the cornfield and up the side of the road east for a distance of 498 feet before it stopped. Sheriff Phipps and State Highway Patrolmen were on the scene of the accident soon after it happened. No inquest was held. The Bacon car was wrecked beyond repair and the front of the truck was quite badly damaged. The men were enroute to Tekamah when the accident occurred and had been in Lyons just a few minutes before and when the news reached Lyons that they had been killed it was nearly unbelievable. The accident was made doubly sad by the fact that Mrs. Frey, in company with other relatives, was away from home on a trip to the west to visit with relatives. Two of the children had remained at home with Mr. Frey. Every effort was made to contact her but she was not located until Monday at Billings, Montana. A double funeral service was held Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 P. M. from Harvey‘s Mortuary and at 2:30 P.M. from the Methodist church. It is estimated that nearly 1,000 people attended the services. Both men were lifelong residents of the community northeast of Lyons and were well known. Rev. C. O. Troy had charge of the services. Interment was made in Lyons cemetery.
