Arthur Dutton, 50-year old farmer from Lelia Lake, was killed Thanksgiving day when his car collided with a pick-up truck just outside of Lelia Lake, on highway 287.

Gordon Moore, 14, driver of the truck was uninjured, but his brother who was with him suffered facial lacerations.

Mr. Dutton is survived by his wife and a daughter, Mrs. E.J. Myers of Wellington.

Mr. Dutton was a resident of Memphis for a number of years before moving to Lelia Lake, and was well known in this community.
