Floyd Sanders Killed in Accident

Burial services were conducted at Ollie last Friday afternoon for Floyd 
Sanders, 30 years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. P. Sanders, who died Wednesday as 
the result of injuries suffered while at work for the Gas & Electric Company at 
Shippingport, Louisville.

Mr. Sanders was riding on the "dinky" train when the car jumped the track and 
he was thrown to the ground. His body was caught beneath the footboard of the 
car and was horribly crushed, though he lived for several hours and was 
conscious almost to the end and talked with Mrs. Sanders, who was constantly at 
his bedside at Sts. Mary and Elizabeth Hospital where he was rushed immediately 
after the accident.

Mr. Sanders was well known in Edmonson county and he and his family have many 
friends here who were greatly shocked and grieved when word of his untimely 
passing was received here. Besides the widow and parents, one daughter, two 
step children, and numerous other relatives in this county and at Louisville 
survive.

Accomnanying the body to the old home for burial were Hobart Meredith and 
family Mrs. Dude Sanders, Mrs. Jettie Schaelle, a sister-in-law, and a 
representative of the Gas & Electric Company, the funeral party returning to 
Louisville Sunday.
