KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT
 
Husband of B. F. Huff's Niece Knocked Over California Embankment
 
B. F. Huff is in receipt of the news of the death of Lora O. Lee, husband of 
his niece, formerly Helen Huff, of Baker, Oregon, in an auto collision in 
California Sunday.
 
T. C. Huff, brother of B. F. Huff, wife and daughter, Elizabeth, and his son-
in-law, Lora O. Lee, wife and two children left Baker July 4th for California 
and had reached a point 75 miles below Eureka, California, when the accident 
occurred.  At the time Mrs. Lee and her children were riding with her parents 
in the lead car and Lee and Elizabeth Huff were riding in the rear car.  They 
were suddenly hit by another car, but Mr. Lee succeeded in righting his car 
and getting back into the road, only to be hit by another car and knocked over 
a hundred foot embankment to a river below.
 
They were hurriedly rescued and it was found that Elizabeth Huff was badly 
bruised and quite badly hurt, although not fatally, bur Lora Lee was terribly 
mangled and died on the way to town.  His remains are being shipped back to 
Baker, accompanied by the wife and children, while the parents will not start 
back until the injured daughter is able to travel.
