The Portland Observer, Tuesday, October 8, 1918


Mrs. John Sharkey died late last week as the result of an automobile accident 
while the Sharkeys were driving in an automobile, near Battle Creek.  The 
machine was ditched and Mrs. Sharkey suffered a fracture of the skull, living 
but a few hours.  Her husband, who was driving, escaped injury.

The Sharkeys formerly resided on the Francis Fox farm in Danby and after 
leaving that place they spent some time with their daughter, Mrs. Harry 
Kirkham, who, with her husband, lives on Warren Griffin’s farm in Danby.

It was only last Wednesday that Mr. and Mrs. Sharkey moved their household 
goods to Battle Creek, where they resided before coming to Danby, and before 
settling they decided to go to Jackson to visit relatives.  It was while on 
the way home that the accident happened.

Mr. and Mrs. Kirkham went to Battle Creek immediately on receipt of the news, 
remaining for the funeral, which was held Sunday.
