Mother - Daughter Killed In Weekend Auto Mishap

A tragic highway accident claimed it's second life Wednesday, when 17 year old Nadine Brown, died at St. Vincents hospital, Billings of injuries suffered when the car she was a passenger in collided with a 21 ft. oil storage tank being transported on the back of a truck and the Eagle Creek bridge, about nine miles west of Powell, near Ralston.

Killed instantly was Beulah Brown, 37 , Byron, mother of Nadine. Eight other ocupants of the station wagon were injured, six of which were members of the Gerald Brown family.

Nadine along with her father, Gerald Brown, 49, and a younger sister, five year old Carol were transferred to St. Vincent's hospital from War Memorial hospital at Powell Sunday.

Others injured in the mishap were Betty Brown, 24, Cody, possible broken pelvis and sever bruises to the thighs. Dorothy Brown, 15, broken pelvis. Jerry Brown, 13, broken collar bone and broken pelvis, Linda, 11 broken pelvis, Charles Brown, 9 , possible skull fracture, Carol Brown, 5, fractured right leg and chin. Gerald Brown, 49, the father, received chest and head injuries and lacerations.

A grandson, Gerald Mumford 3, Lovell, was the least injured in the auto with only bruises.

Investigating highway patrol officers stated, that the car driven at the time by the father, plowed into the side of an oil storage tank on the back of an oncoming truck just as the truck was leaving the Eagle Creek bridge, about nine miles west of Powell, near Ralston, then struck the side of the bridge sending the timbers into the auto.

Two of the Brown children were thrown from the auto along with the family dog. They were found near the creek bed. The officers stated that the animal had to be disposed of at the scene.

The injured were transported to the Powell hospital by ambulance, patrol cars and automobiles of passerbys.

Officers stated that the truck belonging to the Harris Trucking Company, Cody, was driven by Robert Slater, 29, Cody. Slater was not injured. They said that flagmen were stationed both in front and in back of the west bound truck.

No skid marks were found at the scene of the accident, but later investigation disclosed that this may have been due to a broken brake fluid line. The demolished car showed the loss of brake fluid in the right rear brake drum. Patrolmen stated that the emergency brake handle was found pulled all the way out.

Blood for the injured Brown family was rushed to the hospital from Lovell, Cody, Greybull and Worland by the highway patrol, game warden, Jim Coyner and Park county Undersheriff Leonard Whitney. Later blood was flown in from the center at Cheyenne. Blood donors were called from the Northwest Community College basketball game Saturday night.

The death of Mrs. Brown and Nadine raised Wyoming's highway toll for the year to four, one below this same date a year ago.

Mrs. Brown was born July 20, 1922 at Byron, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Asay. She was married to Gerald Brown July 21, 1937, in Thermopolis.

Surviving are her husband, three daughters, Mrs. Gary Mumford of Lovell, Linda and Carol; two sons Charles and Jerry and two sisters, Mrs. Harry Cook of Lovell and Mrs. Lena Holcomb of Thermopolis.

Funeral services for Mrs. Brown were held Wednesday at 2 p.m. from the LDS Chapel in Byron, with Bishop Joseph Doty officiating.

The Haskell Funeral home was in charge of arrangements.

Funeral services for Nadine Brown will be held Thursday, today, at 2 p.m. in Byron at the LDS chapel.
