Heavy Rain
Factor in Rural
Crash Fatal
to Local Woman
Nelline Sue Burch, 48, Route 12, was killed this morning in
a two-car collision on Road 650E at Road 100S.
Mrs. Burch, who resided on Elizabeth Street in Eastridge
Manor, worked afternoons and evenings as a part-time district route manager in
the circulation department at The Republic.
Emergency Medical Technicians with Medic 1 said Mrs. Burch
died on the way to Bartholomew County Hospital, but doctors in the emergency
room tried for 15 minutes to save her life.
She suffered leg, head and abdominal injuries in the accident.
Shelia Moenning,* 635 Jackson Park Drive, Seymour, driver
of the other car, suffered cuts, bruises and head injuries. She was taken by Athens Ambulance to the emergency
room where she was being treated this morning.
The accident occurred about 8:20 a.m. today in a heavy rain
storm.
Bartholomew County Sheriff's Deputy Keith Foster, who
investigated, said Mrs. Burch was driving south on Road 650E and stopped at a
stop sign at Road 100S. He said she
pulled out into the path of the other car which struck the Burch vehicle on the
driver's side door.
Foster said Mrs. Burch was trapped behind the wheel of her
car for 15 minutes. They said they used
their "jaws of life" to free her.
Foster said visibility at the intersection normally is good
but that heavy rain at the time and the gray color of the Moenning vehicle
could have contributed to the accident.
"There wasn't anything either driver could do to avoid the
collision once she pulled out into the intersection," Foster said.
Mrs. Burch was born May 17, 1931. She formerly was assistant manager of the Diana Shop which was in
downtown Columbus.
She attended school in Washington, Ind., and was graduated
from the high school there in 1948.
She is survived by her husband, Elmer, who works at
Reliance Electric Co., and a daughter, Mrs. Sandra Moir of Columbus.

[Indiana] Tribune on July 14, 1979, the name of the other driver is given as

4 drownings over weekend
by Sandi Collins, Times
Staff Writer
Drownings during weekend claimed the lives of a brother and
a sister in a Warren Township pond and two people in the Ohio River.
Argie Hall Jr., 14, and his sister, Donna Jean Hall, 13, of
Marietta Rt. 4, had tied themselves together with a rope to go frog-gigging
Friday in a neighbor's pond when one of them got in too deep and dragged the
other to death, reported the Washington County Sheriff's Department.
Matthew Newbanks, 15 of Little Hocking Rt. 1, and Johnny
Harold Barnhart, 26, of Guysville Rt. 1 drowned early Sunday morning when a
boat overturned in the Ohio River near Mustapha Island below Parkersburg.
The parents of the brother and sister had notified the
sheriff's department about 7 p.m. Friday that the teenagers had been missing
from the home since about 2 p.m. Their
bodies were recovered from a pond on the nearby Hann* property about 9:45 p.m.
by the Warren emergency squad. They
were pronounced dead at the scene by Washington County coroner Kenneth Owen,
who ruled death by asphyxiation.
The other victims apparently were picked up by a
flat-bottom aluminum boat containing Barry Russell and J* Ann Dotson, both of
Coolville, and were heading to a party on an island between Wood County, W.
Va., and Athens County when the boat overturned and capsized, said the Wood
County Sheriff's Department. Dotson and
Russell swam to safety, but Newbank and Barnhart couldn't make it, the
sheriff's department said. Newbank's
body was pulled from the water a short time later, but it was five hours until
Barnhart's body was recovered.
Dr. Charles Barnhart, Wood County coroner, ruled the deaths
were due to drowning.
