Those killed were Mrs. Finis Rodgers, age 54, Milton McNeely, age 22, Mrs. (Pearl) Milton McNeely, age 21, and Carl McNeely, the four month old child of Mr. and Mrs. Milton McNeely. . .. Mrs. McNeely lived only a few minutes, and when death came, still had the baby clutched in her arms, although thrown a distance of several feet. ...
