STRUCK AT A CROSSING
MRS. BUELL AND MISS MABEL SLUTZ
OF DENVER, KILLED IN OHIO
LONDON, OH., Sept. 21. – Upon the arrival of the west bound Big Four train here at 10:45 this morning the train men unloaded three terribly mangled bodies, an aged lady. Mrs. Buell of Denver Colo., sister-in-law of Rev. L. Slutz, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church of this city, and two daughters of Rev. Slutz, Miss Mabel, aged 18 years and little Helen, aged 3 years. Mrs. Buell died immediately after being removed from the train and Helen died thirty minutes later. Mabel was injured inwardly, her collar bone broken, and she has a large cut on the head that probably caused her death.
The accident occurred three miles east of here at Lossenger crossing while they were taking a carriage ride in the country. The crossing is a dangerous one, the road being low with corn fields on each side, making it impossible to see a train unless directly on the track. Mrs. Buell was visiting.
