ROSS RAMEY HAD MIGHTY CLOSE CALL
Driver for Indian Oil Co; Injured When Machine Was Struck by Passenger Train at Parr. Ross Ramey, the driver for the Indian Oil Co., came near meeting a horrible death at Parr Thursday afternoon when the big red G. M. C. truck on which he was delivering gasoline, was struck by passenger train No. 38 at about 3:30 o’clock. Fortunately the car was almost across the track and only the rear end was hit. Ramey was not thrown from the car but was knocked out of the seat and evidently bounced about considerably. The car was not turned over. Ramey was able to crawl out of the car but became unconscious after reaching the ground. He was taken to the home of W. L. Wood, where he remained until the milk train when he was taken to Lafayette and placed in St. Elizabeth’s hospital. Although unconscious for several hours and delirious part of the time after he arrived, he did not seem to be seriously injured about the head and the only broken bones that Dr. Washburn and the hospital physicians could find were a few ribs. He was left at the hospital for a few days to determine whether there were other injuries. The track was somewhat damaged, the large tank being torn off and the rear axle twisted. Vivian Ramey, while cranking an auto the same evening at about 7:30, had his right arm fractured just above the wrist. Vivian is a brother of Ross.
