LAST NIT Unverified Report Says One Man Was Killed and Two Possibly Fatally Injured An unvertfied report has been received to the effect that a disas- trous wreck occurred on the Sus- 'quehanna and New York railroad last night at 8 o'clock near Wheel- erville, one man being killed, one fatally injured and a third buried under a mass of wreckage. The officials of the road are at the scene of the wreck but no inform- ation is obtainable. The wreck is said to have been caused by a number of cars which in some manner had been run on to the main tracks and that a freight train crashed into them. Later reports concerning the wreck say that David Harmon, a brakeman who resides at Jersey Shore, is the name of the man who was killed. The names of the two other men could not be obtained. It is also said that the shift of cars being on the main tracks, was due to the carelessness of a trainman who had failed to set the brakes. The siding on which the cars had Zury L. Travis, 89 Years Old, Died at His Daughter's Home | on South Elmer Avenue | Zury 1. Travis, 89 years old, died yesterday afternoon at 4:15 o'clock at the home of his daugh- ter, Mrs. James N. Weaver, of South Elmer avenue, following an illness which began nearly a year ago. Last Christmas Mr. Travis was taken ill and has since been confined to the house more or less. Yesterday, however, nothing un- usual was noted in his condition until just a moment previous to his death when he asked to be raised in bed. His request was complied with but when he was laid back on his pillow he collapsed and death ensued,” The deceased was born in Bur- lington, this county, and for thirty years followed the occupation of farmer. Years ago he came to Sayre and accepted a position in the Lehigh Valley shops under J. N. Weaver, who was then master mechanic.
