Oscar Kyson Killed In Car Wreck Saturday

Funeral Services Held At Corinth Sunday Afternoon, Rev. Cullen In Charge

Funeral services for Oscar Kyson, 28 years old, who was killed when the
two-door Chevrolet sedan, which he was driving turned over on the Marble
Querry Road Saturday night, were held at Corinth Cemetery, Sunday afternoon,
Rev. A.H. Cullen, pastor Winnfield Baptist Church, was in charge.

According to reports, Oscar Kyson, his brother, Roy Kyson, and Sam Dunn, and
Grandell Pruitt of Bentley were driving on the paved Marble Quarry Road and
were in the vicinity of Mr. Varnell's residence.  When a car started to pass
them they speeded up their machine and moved to their side of the road.  None
of the occupants of the car seemed to know just how the accident occurred, but
it is presumed that a wheel of the car got off the pavement, causing the car
to turn over.  The car was completely wrecked.  Roy Kyson, brother of the
one killed received severe cuts on one hand.  The others were slightly
injured.

The deceased is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kyson, of Ward Nine,
and Mrs. Jack Downhour of Shreveport; and four brothers, Wade, Troy, Roy, and
Jack, all of Ward Nine.
