Lowell A. Wiles, 12-year-old son of Lawrence A. Wilea, who was a former resident of Fowler, and for several years cashier of * the Baldwin & Dague bank at Goodland, was killed in Indianapolis by an automobile Sunday morning. Lowell was on his way to Sunday school and had just alighted d’rom a street car and stepped around on the other side when a big auto driven by a colored chauffeur struck him, knocking him to the pavement and then passed over him. The driver hesitated a moment, then sped on without giving a clue to his identity. Later detectives learned of an automobile from one of the city garages was driven by a colored man in the locality where the casualty occurred. The negro at first denied having been near the place, but after some questioning admitted that It was he who drove the car that killed the boy. He said he knew he had killed him and the first impulse was to stop, but the following one of fear was strongest and he fled, his only thought being to get away. He declared the accident was unavoidable and a witness to the tragedy bore him out. The boy lived only about twenty minutes. The remains were brought to Goodland for Interment Tuesday. The (father was at home sick when the accident occurred. Lawrence Wiles, who is now cashier of the South Side bank in Indianapolis, was raised in Fowler and has many friends here who deeply sympathize with him in this sad hour. Lowell was born in Goodland and was a bright boy, full of promise.
