Read More	KILLED WHEN CAR TURNS TURTLE Ford car Driven By Miss Leeuwrick Turns Over - Johnnie Leeuwrick, Aged 4 Years, Is Killed -- Girl In Hospital Suffering From Broken Shoulder A fatal motor accident occurred on Wednesday afternoon. Miss Nellie Leeuwrick was driving north from their home in her Ford car, accompanied by her brother, Johnnie, aged 4 years. When a few yards from the house, a blow-out occurred in one of the rear tires, and the car suddenly turned over, throwing the occupants out and leaving the four wheels of the auto in the air. Mrs. Leeuwrick, who witnessed the accident from the house, at once phoned for Dr. Kennedy, who found the boy suffering from concussions, while Miss Leeuwrick was taken to the hospital with a broken and dislocated shoulder. In spite of careful medical treatment the small laddie passed away at shortly after 8 o'clock last night. The funeral will be held from the home of his parents on Friday, April 26th at 2 p.m. Miss Leeuwrick is progressing as well as possible under the circumstances. How the car turned over is a mystery. There was a high wind blowing at the time, and that is the only accountable reason, as the trail was in perfect condition, and the car was traveling very slowly.
