Mrs. Clarence Schwab was fatally injured and Mr. Schwab was injured Tuesday afternoon about 4:00 o'clock when the Missouri-Pacific freight and passenger train struck their International truck at the railroad crossing one mile east of Lamont. Mrs. Schwab died at Newman Memorial hospital at 10:00 o'clock Tuesday night. Apparently neither Mr. or Mrs. Schwab saw the approaching train. The truck, which was going south, was struck almost in the center on the right side. The train was going east, having just left Lamont, and was not traveling very fast. The impact evidently threw Mrs. Schwab out of the truck and directly in the path of the train. The train ran over her right arm, severing it at the elbow. Mrs. Schwab was lying about 30 feet up the track from where the truck was struck. She also suffered a concussion an Clarence Fankhouser, who was working just north of the scene of the accident, said he did not see the approaching truck, but heard the impact of the wreck and went at once to hilp. Mrs. Schwab was brought to Madison in the Dewey Evans car and Lincoln Thornton brought Mr. Scwab in his car. Medical aid was not available at once in Madison, so the injured were taken on to Newman hospital in the same cars. The cars carrying the injured folks were met at the Emporia city limits by a police car and State Hig J. H. Winchell, of LeRoy, conductor of the train which collided with the Schwab truck, came as far as Madison with the injured people. He said both Mr. and Mrs. Schwab were unconscious when they were picked up after the accident. D. D. Lipsey, LeRoy , was was the engineer on the train. Mrs. Schwab was born at Hamilton, February 28, 1916, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pheanis Oliver. She was married at Eldorado, Kansas, on June 11, 1936, to Clarence Schwab of Lamont. She is survived by her husband; her mother, Mrs. M. P. Cook, of Madison; her father, Pheanis Oliver, of Hamilton; two brothers, Howard Oliver and Leonard Oliver of Kansas City, Mo.; and one sister, Mrs. Frank Pusey, of Moline, Ill. Funeral services will be held this (Thursday) afternoon, Oct. 30, at 2:30 o'clock at the Methodist church in Madison. Interment will be made in No. 8 cemetery at Madison.
