Ionia Standard - Fri. Nov. 8, 1907

John Blasen went to Grand Rapids last Friday to see his sister-in-law, Mrs. 
Charles Konkle, who was run over by Grand Trunk freight train at that place, 
Wednesday afternoon. With her niece she was driving across the railroad near 
Fuller station, and the carriage was struck by engine when squarely across the 
track, the occupants being thrown out. The engine wheels passed over Mrs. 
Konkle, crushing left arm was amputated at shoulder. A phone message last 
evening said that she was resting easily, and the doctors gave some home of 
recovery. Mrs. Konkle is a sister of the late A. H. Geck, and the last survivor 
of the family. (Later- Mrs. Konkle died later in the day.)
