      Newspaper Article - Thursday, November 14, 1957 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - About People You Know - Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Hutchins of Birmingham, Alabama, are spending the week with Mrs. Bessie Littler, called here by the death of Mrs. Lydia Hutchins.

      Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, July 18, 1957 Sandy Creek News - Sandy Creek, New York - 6 Mannsville Women Hurt, One Fatally - A two car crash near New Haven last Thursday afternoon injured six Mannsville women, one, Mrs. Sydnietta Cross, 76, fatally, while another, Mrs. Millie Sheets, 85, was still in a critical condition in Oswego hospital when relatives visited her Tuesday evening. Others injured were Mrs. Lydia Hutchins, 85, whose condition remains critical; Mrs. Wilson Hart, who was able to leave the hospital Sunday, and Miss Jane Piddock, driver of the car, injured also. The accident also resulted in serious injuries to five persons in the other car involved. They were Rev. Mrs. Edna Elkins, driver and her passengers, Mrs. Edmond Bartlett, Mrs. Fay Parrish, all of North Volney; also Carol and Georgie Spohn, aged 14 and 11, of North Volney. State police reported that witnesses said the Elkins car failed to stop for the stop sign at the north edge of the Dempster-New Haven road at its intersection with Route 104-B. Those in the car were returning home from a WSCS picnic meeting at the Alvin McDougall camp at Dempster. The Mannsville women had just left the Dempster Camp Grove about 300 yards west of the intersection, following a picnic of the Mannsville Methodist church WSCS. Four ambulances from Mexico, Oswego and Parish were used to move the 11 injured persons to Oswego hospital after emergency treatment by Dr. John Anderson of Mexico. The New Haven Fire Department went to the scene with a pumper but their services were not needed, except to aid in removing the injured from the cars, as no fire resulted from the accident. The crash occurred about 3 p.m. Mrs. Sydnietta Cross died at about 1 a.m. of her injuries, which included shock, broken ribs, broken arm and leg. Mrs. Sheets, who is 85, had both arms broken, internal injuries, scalp lacerations and shock. Mrs. Hutchins, also 85, had both legs and one arm broken. Mrs. Hart had a shoulder injury and a broken thumb, and Miss Piddock suffered head injuries and shock. Mrs. Rowland Spaulding had fractures of both ankles and one leg and suffered from shock. Occupants of the other car were also injured, Mrs. Elkins, the driver, being in critical condition. Trooper Leo Colotti of Pulaski substation is continuing his investigation of the accident scene handling the heavy traffic and in aiding the injured by Trooper John Maucher of Minetto substation and Trooper M. E. Gilbert of Pulaski substation. Later Sgt. C. E. Walburgh and Trooper George A. Sanders, both BCI Pulaski, went to the scene to assist in the investigation.
