Parker, pay master at a Royal Air Force school in Huron County, was instant- ly killed at 2,00 amt., Sunday as he was driving through Clinton on No, 8 highway. His ear, a 1940 model coach, skidded on wet pavement at the intersection of - Pinsky' street and went out of control, Flying Of- ficer Parker, who'was alone in the car, was thrown about 25 feet as the car crashed broadside into a large maple tree. He suffered a broken neck, causing instant death, There was no apparent reason for the car leaving the highway and coroner Dr. J. W. Shaw, said an inquest was un- nenessavy. While the accident was being in- vestigated at the scene by Traffic Officers Clap and Lever, a car driven by Martin Ward, of 238 Crescent av- enue Buffalo, crashed through the flares which had been set up on the highway, and smashed .into Officer Lever's motorcycle, demolishing it: The car out of control careened into another parked vehicle and came to a stop on A. Vodden's lawn. Bystan- ders at the scene were forced to leap out of the way to avoid being struck by the Ward car, Ward was taken into custody on a charge of danger- ous driving, but was released on bail in Goderich, Flying. Officer Parker was 35 years old. He leaves a wife and two child- ren in England. This fatality is almost identical with that of a month ago when Flt. Lt. C. Ewens of the school was killed, and both officers occupied important positions. The body of Flying officer Parker, who died on Sunday,. was interred Tuesday morning with full military honors. The body had reposed at Clinton until Tuesday when the fun- eral cortege started, at 9 o'clock, led by Traffic Officer Lever followed by a company of officer's: The casket was covered with the Union Jack, on top of which was placed the officer's cap, snit borne on an air force truck,. preceded by fifty Men followed by a firing squad, and trumpeter, with of- ficers bringing up the rear. Arriv- ing at the cemetery the casket was borne on the shoulders of six young officers to the place where the bur- itd service was read by Rev, G. W. Moore. After the service volleys were fired, Last Post, and Reveille sounded- and then the officers ap- Poached the foot of the grave one by one and gave the salute. Interment was made in Clinton cemetery, Presentation To Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Jordan Friday evening of last week was the occasion of a" large gathering in honour of Mr, and Mrs, Samuel Jor- dan, who are leaving Goderich Town- ship to make their home in Clinton, The main feature of the evening, which was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Harvey Jenkins, was the presentation of a beautiful - trilite lamp, to the guests of honour. The presentation was made by Mrs. Will Jenkins and the following acidness was read by Mrs, Harvey Jenkins, To Mr. and Mr's. Jordan: "It is with a great deal of pleas• ure that this company has gathered here on this 'occasion that we •might enjoy again, for a few hours, your company before you leave us.
