Mr. Miller, farmer living four miles south of Oxford Junction, died late Friday afternoon from injuries received at 1 p.m. in an auto accident which occurred on a gravel road between Clarence and Massilon when a car driven by Emer Mowry, Lowden, and a small truck driven by Miller collided head on. Mowry was unhurt but Miller was thrown out on his head. He was taken to a home nearby and later to Cedar Rapids but died before reaching the hospital.

He was united in marriage to Frieda Eilers on Jan. 11, 1911, who survives with four children. They are Dale, at home; Mrs. Louise Kahl, Clarence; Mrs. Vernon Sarver, Lost Nation, and Frieda May, at home. Two brothers also survive, John, Oxford Junction, and Charles, Long Beach, Calif., and two grandchildren.
