suffered a fracture of the skull and
other injuries.
The tragic ending of the birthday

thirty-first year on the day of the
fatal accident. He was born in Ams-
bry June 28, 1889, the son of George
and Elizabeth Williams Boooterbaugh,
and spent all of his life at Amsbry.

ters also survive: Manuel and Samuel
Booterbaugh, both of Amsbry; Robert
