METTA YOKES--57: widow of AS Yokes, died in an ambulance on the way to Ashtabula General Hosp. Her companion MrsDarl Steadman, driver of the car, was taken to Brown Memorial Hosp-Conneaut suffering from injuries which may cause her death. MrsSteadman is 50. Both women, neighbors in Richmond, were on their way to Andover on a shopping tour when the accident occurred. Their vision was said to have been obscured by a milk train standing on a siding at the NorthMainSt crossing. The flyer struck the car in the middle & hurled it a considerable distance. When picked up, MrsYokes was believed at first to be less seriously injured than her companion. She was placed in the Robert Ellis ambulance & started for Ashtabula, but died before reaching Dorset. Her body was returned to Andover & placed in the Ellis undertaking rooms. MrsSteadman was rushed to the hosp at Conneaut. Her injuries consist of several extended cuts below the left eye & another under the chin. Her right wrist was fractured & a great toe had to be amputated. The automobile was demolished. The funeral of MrsYokes will be held Tues afternoon at the home in Richmond. {Interment in West Williamsfield Cem}
