50 YEARS AGO
Mrs. James Conley, 80 years
of age, who resided with her
son J.W. Conley, on an island
in Snake River, south of Nyssa,
was struck by westbound pas
senger train No. 19, Sunday
afternoon and hurled from the
O.S.L. bridge into the swift
current of Snake River.
The aged women had attended
a picnic at Johnson’s grove, on
an island in the river which
the bridge spans.
Becoming
tired Mrs. Conley, against pro
test of her friends insisted
on taking the bridge rather
than wait for ’he boat that had
carried the party over.
Midway of her passage over
the ties, the picnic party was
horrified to see the train swing
around the curve at 40 miles
an hour. The engineer at once
sounded his whistle and applied
the brakes. Mrs. Conley ap
parently did not hear the alarm
and the train slowed to less
than 20 miles an hour, struck
her, hurling her into the river
at which point was about 12
feet deep with a swift current.
The
crew
immediately
searched along the river bank,
but the body did not appear
after striking the water. A
watch was kept at all points
below, while a crew of rail
road men and residents dragged
the river Sunday night.
No blame was laidtothe train
crew who did all in their power
to avert the accident.
The body was found on a
sand bar on an island Monday
a mile and a half below the
bridge.

Audrey Ward were Gertie
