Car hits train at Whitechurch railway crossing
BY VALETTA EMERSON
At the north end of
Whitechurch there is a very
treacherous railway crossing
where the underbrush has
grown up and the trees
branched out so it is hard to
see an approaching train.
Another factor is that the
train has no special time. It
just comes along when it has
work to do and many folks
never are aware of it coming.
On Wednesday afternoon
Mrs: N. W. Bolt and her
sister who live on -the former
Wes Tiffin farm in, the
Langside vicinity, were com-
ing south into Whitechurch
and they failed to get
stopped for the train coming
from the ,west and hit- the

seat belts on and were not

damaged. Fred Tiffin took
the ladies back to their home.
