Hopkinton Family Escapes as Train Scrapes Car
A Hopkinton family of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Sternhagen and three children escaped serious injury when a southbound Milwaukee passenger train struck their car at a center crossing two miles northwest of Hopkinton. The snowplow on the engine tore a large hole in the car front, but the occupants were unharmed and transported to their home on the S. B. Lowe farm in River Valley. The crossing accident was described as the first of its kind in the area by local agent L. Ireland.
