Charles R. Quinley Is Second Traffic Fatality in County.
Charles Ross QUINLEY, 62, of 1137 Mulvane, became Topeka's first traffic victim
this year and the second in Shawnee County early Thursday morning when he died
in a Topeka hospital from a broken neck.
The accident occurred April 11 at Eighth and Buchanan when his car and a car
driven by Bennett Eddy, 23, of 216 Tyler, came together at Eighth and Buchanan.
Altho Quinley's car did not turn over and he was not thrown from his car, the
force was sufficient to break his neck. He was paralyzed below his neck until he
died. 
Quinley, an interior decorating contractor, was born July 22, 1884 in Weston,
Mo., and had made his home in Topeka 19 years. He was a membr of the Lowman
Memorial Church.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Nell F. Quinley of the home; a daughter, Mrs.
R.L. MASSEY, Topeka; two sons, Robert and James Quinley, both of Topeka; two
sisters, Mrs. Emma WAGGONER, Weston, Mo., and Mrs. Carl NORRIS, Oklahoma City;
and two brothers, George A. and Peter James Quinley, Kansas City. The body was
taken to the Wall-Diffenderfer Mortuary.
Dr. H.L. Clark, county coroner, announced that an inquest will be held. A jury
will be selected today and the hearing probably will be held next week.
