DIES FOLLOWING
ROAD ACCIDENT
Two Loaded
Gravel Trucks,
Bus Involved
John K. Mixon, 58, well-known Cisco farmer and truck driver, was fatally injured at 11:35 a. m. Saturday when the loaded gravel truck he was driving was in collision with another gravel truck and a Jordan bus near Millerton.
He died at 4:45 p. m. Sunday at the Idabel General hospital where he was taken for treatment. Physicians attributed his death to chest and other internal injuries.
Highway Patrolmen Dusty Rhodes and I. W. Manley, who investigated the wreck, state that it occurred when a truck driven by Ike Williams, Idabel, going west, and a Jordan bus, driven by J. R. Sanders, Hugo, going east, slowed in passing on a narrow culvert near the old Wheelock road east of Millerton.
Sanders, the bus driver, told the patrolmen that vision was greatly obscured by dust and that Mixon's truck, going west, behind Williams, appears out of a dust cloud in the path of the bus. Mixon swerved his truck, but the inside fenders scraped and the bed of the truck struck and shattered a side window of the bus before Mixon's truck hit the back of the other.
Mixon's truck was demolished and damage to Williams' was estimated at $250. Damage to the bus was about $25.
No charges will be filed.
A native of Arkansas, John K. Mixon had resided at Cisco for the past 30 years, moving there from Arkansas. He was a member of the Methodist church.
Survivors includes his widow; four sons; Sam and John Mixon, Idabel; Charles Mixon, Cisco, and Joe Mixon, in the Aleutians with the army; three daughters, Miss Louise Mixon, Miss Gladys Mixon and Mrs. Dorothy Dollarhyde, all of Idabel; one brother, Fred Mixon, Cisco, and four grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at 2:30 p. m. Tuesday at the Forest Hill church with Rev. Thomas E. Webb officiating. Interment was in Forest Hill cemetery under the direction of Coffey funeral home.
Bearers were Wes Harmon, M. T. Smith, Harrison Mooney, M. E. Bright, Bill Starr and Marshall Cooke.
