YOUNG MAN DIES FOLLOWING AUTO ACCIDENT

Just as we were closing our forms this morning we were informed of the death of 
Irvin Miller, son of Clarence Miller, of Altoona, which occurred at the Nason 
Hospital, following an automobile accident on the Woodbury pike near Woodbury, 
this morning.

The young man had been visiting here at the home of his grandparents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Jerre Miller, and left this morning about 7 o'clock with the May bread 
truck in charge of J. E. Furry.  Information as to the accident at this time is 
indefinite, but we are told the May truck was struck by the mail truck which was 
on its way from the southern end of the Cove to Roaring Spring.  The accident 
occurred where the Martinsburg road joins the Woodbury pike.

Miller was seriously injured and was taken to the hospital by Mr. Auldie Logue, 
where he died as above stated.  He was aged nearly 16 years.  Mr. Furry we 
believe was uninjured.
