Read More	Maxwell, March 12 - Floris Myers (sic), 16, and Russel (sic) Myers (sic), son of Mr. and Mrs. Arley Myers (sic) of north of Mingo, were instantly killed in a grade crossing crash near Mingo, Saturday night about 11 o'clock when the car in which they were homeward bound was struck by a fast Great Western passenger, on the crossing just in the northeast edge of Mingo. Both lads were killed instantly and their bodies badly mangled in the wreckage. The bodies were taken to an undertaking parlor in Maxwell where they await the funeral services to be held Tuesday afternoon at the Brethren church, four miles south of Maxwell, the service to be in charge of Rev. C.E. Lookingbill of Nevada. The boys had been in Mingo to spend the evening and were just starting home when they drove out onto the obscure crossing, in the path of the on-coming eastbound fast train into the very jaws of instant death. They are grandsons of Urias Myers, one of the pioneers of this part of the county, and the family is well-known in the south part of the county as well as in north Polk and Jasper counties.
