AUTO ACCIDENT RESULTS IN DEATH OF FRED BIPPLEY

 

Six Lake Odessa Young People Start For Hastings. Car Turns Over West of Woodland. Miss

Bywater in Hospital

 

One of the saddest accidents that has happened to Lake Odessa people in many years

occurred last Tuesday when six of our young people started for the American Legion

celebration at Hastings.

 

The young people were Fred Bippley, Floyd Bates, James Easley, the Misses Mildred and

Gladys Bates and Hildreth Bywater.  When about one and one-half miles west of Woodland

the car suddenly overturned throwing all out with Fred Bippley under the rear wheel

which was broken and resting n his chest. Miss Hildreth Bywater was injured so badly

she could not move but the others were free.  The boys lifted the back of the car

and the Bates girls dragged the Bippley boy from his fatal position.  A passing car

came to their assistance and Fred was taken to the nearby home of August Geiger and a

physician sent for and the family notified.  The girls of the party were taken to

Pennock hospital, Hastings, where the following were found injured, Mildred Bates'

elbow thrown out of joint and Hildreth Bywater's back badly sprained.  (A later

report says she can move hands and feet, but not her head as yet.) It is thought

however, she will recover but the shock is a severe one for her.

 

Fred Bippley lived and was conscious about one and one-half hours, when he died as a

result of the crushing in of the lungs.  He was the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank

Bippley, prosperous farmer people living northeast of town and leaves besides his

parents, two sisters and one brother.  He was a graduate of our high school, being

a member of the class of 1919. He would have been 23 years of age July 13 and was

of a studious, quiet nature. Always striving to do his work well and completely.

His last thoughts were of his companions, asking if they were alright, and expressing

the sorrow that his parents would feel when they knew.

 

His untimely death is a sad blow to his family and they have the sympathy of the

entire community. His health had not been the best for some time which greatly

concerned his parents but recently he was getting better and hope returned for his

complete recovery when the awful accident came.

 

The exact cause of the accident will remain a mystery, but it is thought that as the

car was at a sidling place and an abrupt turn of the wheel at the same placing the

foot on the accelerator by mistake threw the car over.

 

Miss Bywater is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Bywater of this village. The

Bates young people live with their parents near Woodbury on the Eckardt farm and Mr.

Easley works on the Haddix farm.  All are young people of good standing and respect

and everyone expresses sympathy for these young people.

 

The Dodge touring car was wrecked.

 

The funeral will be held at the Central M.E. church Friday (today) at 2 o'clock. 

Burial will be at Lakeside cemetery.

Notes for GERALD BYWATER:

WEIDMAN BOYS WHO HAVE MADE GOOD

                                               (transcribed by: L. Johnson)

 

 

 

     Gerald Bywater was born on a farm near Sherman City, July 29, 1910, where he lived till

 

he was 16.  He passed the eighth grade in Sherman City, started in the ninth at Barryton, but

 

removed to Weidman with his parents and graduated from Weidman High.

 

     Gerald was never afraid of work, and the neighbors were glad to get him to work for them

 

because he did his work well and stuck to it until it was done.

 

     He went to work for the Isabella County State Bank a year ago last March, after a course

 

in the Ferris Institute.  His employers have noticed the same fidelity to duty and the same

 

thoroughness that characterized him when a lad.  We hear Gerald is to be transferred to the

 

Weidman bank soon, where he will be at home to all the home folks.  We shall all be pleased

 

to have Gerald with us again, and predict an increasing success in his chosen profession.

Quoted from a Book called "Brinton  I used to go there to Dances" by Marilyn Geasler Fosburg

 Oscar T Brinton described by Bud Longton, who remembered him, as a large mean man that didn't like kids around the charcoal kilns or wood piles.  Bud was a youngster at the time and Frances Beck his daughter tells how Bud and the other Brinton youngsters used to delight in teasing Mr Brinton

 In March 1888 "quite an excited and jocular crowd filled the office of Justice Lawrence".  The excitement was caused by the arrest of O T Brinton on the charge of assault and battery upon the person of Jacob Otterbine, a minor, 5 yrs of age.  The prisoner pled guilty and was fined $5 and court costs of $8.
