Auto Accident Fatal To One

Wesley Beigh, 50, Fatally Injured On Way Home From Hunting

Wesley S. Beigh, 50, of Payette, met instant death at 10 o'clock last Thursday 
night when the panel truck he was driving left highway 30 and 95 about five 
miles north of Payette, and rolled over on its top.

Max Beigh, 54, brother of the driver, was asleep when the accident occurred, 
and escaped with minor cuts and bruises, Deputy Sheriff Ray Decker said. Taken 
to the Payette Valley Memorial hospital by Shaffer ambulance, he received 
treatment and was released later Thursday evening.

The 1936 ford panel truck driven by Wesley Beigh, was going south when it left 
the pavement on the right side of the road Decker said. Finally pulled back 
onto the pavement, the vehicle cut left across the highway into the borrow 
pit, traveled eighty feet before rolling over on its top.

The brothers had left Kooskia, Idaho Thursday morning after an unsuccessful 
hunting trip, and were returning home, Decker said.

Wesley Saul Beigh, 50, was born at Perth, North Dakota on December 19, 1899. 
He was married to Lena Durham at Boise in 1928 and moved to Payette the same 
year.

Survivors are his widow, Mrs. Lena Beigh, of Payette, one daughter, Mrs. 
Kathleen Gilbert of Portland; four brothers, A.L. Beigh, of Portland; John B. 
and L.E. Beigh, of Olympia, Washington, and Max Beigh, of Payette. Also 
surviving are three sisters, Mrs. Fern McAfee, of Umatilla, Oregon; Mrs. Mary 
Holloway, of Ontario, Oregon, and Mrs. Sadie Ritzious, of Weiser, and one 
grandson.

Funeral services were held 2 p.m. Monday at the Shaffer Memory Chapel with the 
Rev. Edward J. Glover officiating.

Interment was at Riverside cemetery.
