OCTOBER 19, 1932
LEG BROKEN
Mrs. Sophia Peters Struck By a Hit-and-Run Driver -- Leg Broken in Two Places -- Culprit Unknown

Mrs. Sophia Peters of Chestnut Street was struck by a hit and run driver, Sunday evening, about 7:00 o'clock as she was on her way to visit Mrs. Robert Taylor. She was knocked unconscious and left lying by the road side, where she was later discovered by Ed. Ford and Mr. Gosset.

Dr. Heist was called and after first aid she was rushed to the Dunkirk hospital. Both bones in her right leg were broken. The limb has been set, placed in a cast and Mrs. Peters is doing nicely and expects to return home this Wednesday.

Unfortunately no trace has been found of the culprit who justly deserves to be apprehended and given the full extent of the law.

In Memoriam
In loving memory of Francis W. Ostrander, who passed away at Portland, N. Y., May 25, 1918:
"In a grave yard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave,
Lies the one we loved so dearly,
But one we could not save.
Heaven now retains our treasure,
Earth his casket keeps,
And the angels love to linger,
Where our darling loved one sleeps."
Inserted by his devoted wife, father, brothers, sisters, and a loving aunt in Calgary, Canada.

In loving memory of our dear mother, Elizabeth Ellen Ostrander, who passed into eternal rest at Volusia, N. Y., seven years ago today, March 14, 1914.

"In a grave yard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave,
Lies the one we loved so dearly,
In her silent lonely grave.
Peaceful be your sleep, dear Mother;
'Tis Sweet to breathe your name;
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we do the same"
Sadly missed by her loving husband, C. L. Ostrander, her children, Eliza, Mary, Hartsell, and Earnest, and her only sister Ida Louse Roach, Calgary Canada.
