Automobile Races 1916

Vilot Anstrom, 5-year-old, of Wilton, was instantly killed last Wednesday when the automobile in which she was riding turned turtle near Wilton. Her mother was dangerously injured and may not live. Miss Hannah Dickson was driving the car, which was going down a hill about four and a half miles east of town, when the accident occurred. It struck a rut and in trying to get out of it in some manner the car turned over, making two complete somersaults. The little girl was crushed and her death was immediate. Miss Dickson had a leg broken. The mother received bad fractures and internal injuries.
