An 11 month old Delbert Tholen Jr died from smoke inhalation after a one car crash two miles southwest of Cascade on Highway 151 Monday afternoon. His mother Delores Tholen 25 suffered severe injuries and her 7 year old son William Lockwood had minor injuries. The car skidded after a left rear tire blew out and rolled, the infant ejected and the grass caught fire while the car rested against a fence ten feet from the culvert. The accident marked Jones County’s second traffic fatality of 1966 and followed the county’s first death earlier that year. The mother remained hospitalized in fair condition and other details include passenger injuries and hospital transfers.
