Grandson of Corwith Residents Killed in Accident at San Diego

Corwith - Mr. and Mrs. Harry Merriam received a telegram telling them of the death of their grandson, William George Vicari, at San Diego, Cal., on Saturday afternoon.

It appears that the boy 2 1/2 years, had tried to crawl into the family car through a partly opened window, and losing his grip had fallen, catching his head in the opening, and suffering a broken neck.

Billy George, as he was called, was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Vicari. His mother is the former Wilma Merriam. The body will be brought to Corwith for burial, arriving here late Thursday night. Funeral services will be held in the Methodist church Friday at 2 p.m.
