MAN IS KILLED HERE BY TRUCK
Rites For Alexander Brown, 78, To Be Tuesday At 2
Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday for Alexander Brown, 78, retired farmer of 417 Buckeye street, who died at Samaritan Hospital shortly after 9 p.m. Saturday of a fractured skull sustained at 8:30 p.m. when he was struck by a small truck driven by Lewis A. Packhoud of Cleveland.
The accident occurred in front of the Dell Grocery on Cleveland avenue as the aged man was crossing the street on his way from his home to the grocery. Witnesses state that he apparently became confused at the approach of the auto, first stopping in the center of the street, then stepping into the pathway of the car.
Packhoud, who was enroute to Cleveland, stopped and accompanied the accident victim to the Samaritan Hospital in the ambulance which was immediately called. Brown was unconscious when picked up from the street where he had fallen. Packhoud remained for the coroner's verdict of "death by accident" rendered by Dr. George Riebel and also reported the accident to local police. No charges were preferred against him.
Mr. Brown was born in Monroe county September 28, 1853. He came to Ashland county about 21 years ago and engaged in farming in Clearcreek township. His wife died many years ago and he has resided for the past 15 years with his son, John A. Brown on Buckeye street. Other survivors include another son, Vernon of Connellsville and three daughters, Mrs. G.C. Kysor of near Ashland, Mrs. Edna Lochler* of Greenwich and Mrs. John Lafferre of Woodsfield; three brothers, John of Ashland and William and Charles of near Ashland; four sisters, Mrs. Alice Baker of Ashland, Mrs. P.S. Weber, Mrs. Jay Cecil and Mrs. A.K. Jackson of Monroe county. Ten grandchildren also survive.
Rev. H.S. Powell, pastor of the First Methodist church here, is to officiate at the funeral at 2 p.m. Tuesday at the Heyl Funeral Home on Broad street, followed by burial in the Ashland cemetery.
