TWO KILLED IN WRECK
Westville, Okla. Men Found Under Overturned Automobile by Driver of Service Car
Stilwell, Dec. 19
Caught beneath an automobile that catapulted and landed in a ditch, Mr. M. McCoy, a produce dealer, and Earl Sidwell, a blacksmith, both of Westville, were dead when they were brought here last night following the discovery of their bodies.
Jim Carson, driver of a service car plying between Addilee, a station on the Frisco Railway and Stilwell, was returning from the former place with Hugh Gill of Tahlequah, district court stenographer, when he discovered the wrecked car in a ditch on the side of the road about five miles north of Westville.
Lifting the car Carson and Gill found the injured men. Both were unconscious. They were placed in Carson's car and rushed to the Stilwell Hospital. There it was found that they were dead.
