The story of hi? death was one j
that is read almost daily, but the |
tragic part of this death is That the j
wife of the 77-year-old victim nar

Mrs. Stanley was able to escape j
I the on-rushing car, but her hus- j

■ pathetic story of the accident was:
j the fact that Mrs. Stanley' rushed ;
jto the side of her husband and i

hours.
The Stanleys are reported to j
have returned earlier from Lit- 1

Mr Stanley is reported to have
told his wife he wanted to go
to the store to make some pur
chases. The store is located a |
few' blocks from the Stanley
home. He expressed a fear that
an accident might befall him,
due to his age and inability to !
walk fast enough to dodge ears t
It was was then, according to
reports, that Mrs. Stanley dr
