Nitro Talk Gets Interesting Near Warren Explosive Accidents Recounted
A long York State style column recounts near misses with explosive glycerine loads and wagon wrecks. It cites Ralph Willis of Warren who survived a wagon overturn and a 1940s incident in McKean County where Captain A. J. Thompson’s shoot triggered runaway horses and a wreck near the Rounds farm, ending with a close call and verification of glycerine as the explosive. The piece notes local officials and residents reflecting on the dangers and near fatalities.
