ERNEST NOWLEN KILLED IN WRECK SUNDAY MORNING

Ernest Nowlen, of Tullos, was almost nstantly killed between 7 and 7:30 a. m.
Sunday morning on the highway between Tullos and Urania when a wheel came off
of his model T Ford touring car. The car turned completely over and left young
Nowlen lying in the center of the highway. He was rushed to the LaSalle Clinic
in Olla, but died in about 10 minutes from internal injuries and a crushed
back.

Nowlen was planning on a fishing and camping trip Sunday and was on the way to
gather his friends who were to go with him when the accident occurred. There
were no witnesses to the accident, but evidence showed a wheel had come off
the car, causing it to turn over.

Funeral services were held from New Union church, Tullos, and he was buried in
New Union cemetery Sunday evening. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
A. J. Nowlen, three brothers and two sisters, all of the home in Tullos.
