ELEVEN YEAR OLD GIRL VICTIM OF UNUSUAL AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT
Plain City, Ohio. — This community is grief-stricken over the tragic death of 11-year-old Emma Hostetler, daughter of Mrs. Dan m. Hostetler, who was instantly killed as result of an unusual automobile accident while she was walking along the road near her home.
Coming to a curve in the road, the driver of a fast-approaching car applied the brakes, which grabbed a wheel in such manner as to cause the car to swerve right against the girl, who was well out of the way. it was reported the brakes had been adjusted only a short time before.
The daughter was going to bring home the cows for the evening's milking.
