St. Johns News, Clinton Co.,MI - Aug.8,1918
MICHIGAN CENTRAL TRAIN HITS AUTO; 1 DEAD, 4 INJURED 
Jackson - Miss Iva Baker of Jackson, was instantly killed.  Mrs. Laura Blodgess,
also of Jackson, so badly injured that she may die and three other persons were
injured when an automobile driven by Mrs. Blodgett was struck by an eastbound
Michigan Central train on the Wildwood avenue crossing Thursday night.  

The injured are John Jacobs, Saginaw, Eva Fifer, Battle Creek and Ernst Snyder,
Jackson.  The train, a passenger, was running late and apparently the autoists
did not see its approach.  They had been at Battle Creek and were returning home.

All the injured are in Jackson hospitals.  Mrs. Blodgett is terribly injured,
one foot being severed and the other leg broken, besides internal injuries.
