The Huntington Advertiser, 18 Dec 1937
Frederick L. Hayes
HAYES RITES SET FOR TUESDAY P.M.
Services for C. & O. Man Killed by Car Will Be at Church
Funeral services for Frederick L. Hayes, 65, of Milton route 3, who was 
fatally injured when struck by an automobile as he crossed Third avenue just 
east of Eighteenth street at 10:05 o’clock last night, will be held at 2 
o’clock Tuesday afternoon at the Church of Christ, Tenth avenue and Twenty-
first street.
	Rev. E.R. Watson, pastor, will officiate, assisted by Rev. Max 
Cleveland, assistant pastor. Interment will be in Dudley Gap cemetery, near 
Milton. 
	The body will be removed from the Heck & Danford Funeral home, Milton, 
to the home of his daughter, Mrs. Buelah Adkins, 1226 Twenty-fifth street, 
Huntington, at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning and will remain there until the 
hour of the services.
	John W. Kingsbury, 29, of 2760 Highlawn avenue, driver of the car 
which struck Hayes, was charged this morning with manslaughter in a warrant 
issued by Justice of the Peace Ezra M. Midkiff. Kingsbury waived preliminary 
hearing and was bound over to action of the February grand jury. He was 
released on $1,000 bond.
	Kingsbury, a painting contractor, stopped his car, placed the injured 
man in another automobile which stopped at the scene and took him to the 
hospital. He said his vision was obscured when the front wheel of his car 
struck a puddle of water, splashing it upward. 
	“When I could see,” he told police, “the man was directly in front of 
me and I hit him at the same moment I saw him. He appeared to be standing 
still about the middle of the car tracks.”
	Hayes, an employee of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad, is survived by 
six daughters, Mrs. Bertha Shepherd, Mrs. Abalee Field and Mrs. Jaunita 
Chapman, all of Milton, Mrs. Blanche Martin, Ona, W. Va., and Mrs. Gillie 
Mounts and Mrs. Beulah Adkins, both of Huntington; seven sons, Birl, Ray, 
Carls, Walter and Cosper Hayes, all of Milton, Earl Hayes, Big Seven Mile, W. 
Va., and Elmer Hayes, Huntington; thirty-two grandchildren and one great-
grandchild.
