The bodies arrived last Saturday from California where Mr. and Mrs. John De Mots, Dr. and Mrs. James A. Ogg, Edward De Mots and Mrs. Conrad Jongewaard were instantly killed when the car in which they were riding was struck by a fast express. The supposition is that Mr. John De Mots, who was driving the car, was watching the busy thorough fare on the one hand and and failed to notice the approach of the flyer on the others which, according to testimony of the engineer at the inquest was going at a speed of 48 miles per hour. Conrad Jongewaard who at the time of the accident was at a farm house a short distance from the track heard of the the accident through a telephone report that people had been hit by the train and when he arrived there found that life of all the victims was extinct. Funeral services were held in California which were attended by a very large number of friends of the deceased, after which the bodies were sent to Iowa. The bodies of Dr. and Mrs. Ogg and Edward De Mots were sent to Orange City and those of Mr. and Mrs. John De Mots and Mrs. Jongewaard to Sioux Center. Services for the bodies shipped to Orange City were held early Monday afternoon after which they were conveyed to Sioux Center where services for the dead were held at the home of Mrs. R.C. Jongewaard and joint services were then held at the First Ref. church. So large a concourse of people had gathered to pay their last tribute to the dead that the church was found entirely inadequate to take care of the gathering. The main auditorium of the building was largely taken up by relatives of the deceased. The W.C.T.U. of which Mrs. John De Mots was charter member, Mr. De Mots an honorary member and Mrs. Jongewaard also a member, attended in a body. The services were conducted by the Rev. C. De Young of Orange City, Rev. Jas. De Pree and Rev. A. Haverkamp od Sioux Center. The choir sung a few favorite selections. There being such large number who could not gather in the church overflow services were conducted outside by the Rer. Lubbers of Sioux Center and Rev. Kregel of Hull. After these services opportunity was given to view the remains and for one hour and thirty minutes a steady stream of people filed past the six caskets placed side by side containing the bodies of the dead. The remains were then conveyed to their last resting place where they were lovingly laid away. Alton Democrat 1923-05-19.
