Homer L. ADAMSON, aged 73, died at his home 819 South Jefferson Street at 10:03 o'clock last night from injuries which he received on the night of November 14, when a Chevrolet car driven by him figured in a collision with a car driven by Davey FLYNN at the corner of Sixth and Jefferson streets. Death was due to concussion of the brain, Coroner A. E. STINSON said.
At the time of the accident Mr. Adamson was north bound on Jefferson street, accompanied by his wife and Mr. and Mrs. Charles CLINGER, while Flynn was west bound on Sixth street. The force of the collision caused the Adamson car to turn over on its side, Mr. Adamson striking his head on one of the posts supporting the top of the car.
Mr. Adamson was taken from the car in an unconscious condition and removed to his home in this city. He never regained consciousness from the time of the accident. His attending physician despaired of his life from the first. The only other person injured in the accident was Mrs. Adamson, who received a fracture of the right arm and other bruises.
The deceased was born in Fulton county, the son of William and Christine ADAMSON, and except for a few years when he resided in Tenn., he has lived his entire lifetime in Fulton county. By occupation he was a farmer and a carpenter. For many years he lived on the O'BRIEN farm 1 mile southeast of Rochester on what is known as the Peru road.
Survivors are the wife, who was Isabel JEWELL, whom he married on Nov. 13, 1883, in this city, a daughter, Mrs. Emerson FELDER, West Palm Beach, Fla., four sons, LeRoy [ADAMSON] of Mentone, Arthur [ADAMSON] and Clarence [ADAMSON], Detroit, Mich., and Edgar [ADAMSON], of Davenport, Ia., two brothers, Thomas [ADAMSON], of Middletown, Ohio, and Tine [ADAMSON], of Mt. Vernon, Wash., a sister, Mrs. Emma CLINGER, of Kewanna, and 12 grandchildren. Three sons, Earl [ADAMSON], Ray [ADAMSON] and Edwin [ADAMSON] preceded him in death.
Mr. Adamson was a member of the Evangelical church of this city. The funeral services will be held from the Evangelical church at 2:30 Monday afternoon with the Rev. F. G. KUEBLER in charge. Burial will be made in the Odd Fellows cemetery.
