Auto Victim Kylen Dies After Diagonal Crossing Tragedy

Mrs A Hi Kylen died at city hospital three hours after being struck by an Anderson car driven by Stuart Anderson. A skull fracture and internal injuries prompted surgeons to try to save her with no success. The coroner ruled accidental death. Eyewitnesses described the scene near a manhole on Fourth Street as the car slowed and Kylen crossed diagonally, then dodged, leading to the impact with the left fender. The inquest heard testimony from George Bristow, Mrs. S L Anderson, W D Compton, and Stuart Anderson. Kylen’s husband and children survive, with funeral plans pending as relatives travel to DeKalb and Sunnyside. A note requests the return of a coat exchanged with Mr. Glidden at the funeral.
