"Basil Corrigan and nephew (Harold) Fatally Hurt in Minnesota - Tragedy struck a double blow at Parent, Minn. Friday...when Basil Corrigan and his nephew, Harold Corrigan, a boy of 16, were fatally injured in an automobile accident. Harold is a son of John Corrigan...Harold Corrigan died Friday noon and Basil died this morning. It was indicated that the car occupied by the two victims collided with a train..."
From Stevens Point Daily Journal, Nov. 5, 1927:
"...Harold Corrigan was buried from St. Lawrence's church, Duelm, Minn., at 9 a.m. and Services for Basil Corrigan were conducted at St. Patrick's church, Parent, 11 a.m. the same day.
Both services were largely attended. Eulogies to the deceased uncle and nephew were delivered by the pastor Father Croll. They were about to drive over a railroad crossing when their car was struck by a train, demolishing the automobile and hurting the occupants so badly that they died within a few hours. Mr. and Mrs. James P. Corrigan were former residents near Custer (WI), this county."
