Tragic Highway Death Of Miles Blyne’s Daughter Near Petersburg
A July 14 collision near Petersburg claims the life of 18 year old Miles Edith Blyne of near Cansas as she stepped in front of a rolling moving van. The Blyne family, from Oaktown, learned of the tragedy by telegraph and phone as two Sailivay transfer trucks carried household goods to Pike County. The driver had left the scene briefly to fetch gasoline and the truck began to roll down the hill, striking the girl and passing over her neck, killing her instantly. Her companions were not seriously harmed. The two trucks were linked to trips between Oaktown and Pike County, and the parents learned of the accident after the death notice arrived.
