Putnam, Sept. 4.-While her mother and father for nearly an hour tried fran tically to move the heavy touring car which overturned on Phoenixyille Hill at 123O this morning, the body of Ethel Nj. Lyme 13, of Carlstead, N. J.. lay crushed and life.ess, pinned between the front seat and the body of her uncle, William Slaiding, of Fall River. Mass. Slaiding, severely injured, was thrown across the child when the Rec car which he was driving skidded and overturned. He was gripped fast against the drivers seat, with the steering shaft thrust into his waist making il impossible for him to move. The tragedy shattered the plans for a holiday family reunion which was to have been held at the home of Mrs. Peter Morin of WilIimantic
 Family Party from Fall River.
 Sunday afternoon two automobiles stacted from Fall River for Willimantic. In one, Ford touring car, were MT. and Mrs. James Lyme of New Jersey. two of their three children and Mrs. Lyne's father, Bernard Hoffman, of Fall River. The second car, Rec, contained MT. and Mrs. William Slaiding of Fall River. their two children and the 13 year old daugh- ter of Mir and Mrs. Lyme All were on their way to the Morin home in Willi- mantle, and the night drive had been planned so that the entire day Monday might be spent in festivities that had been arranged for the holiday.
 Car Overturned In Ditch.
 According to Mir Hoffman. all went well with the party until they ran into .. shove rshortly after passing thlV-s Putnam Both automobiles were moving slowly all the way from Putnam to Phoenixville. few minutes before the accident the machines had stopped, to let the members of the families consult ca 0oug the roads. Then the Ford stafted out ahead. Tn a few minutes I looked back" said MT. Hoffman, flor I thought could not see the lights of the other car shining on to us as they had been When l turned all was black. I shouted to Mr. Lyme to stop. and we turned around and drove back a hundred feet or more. Then VI came upon the other car, overturned and in the ditch"

over, were uniniured. The two men who were in the Fcrd and the two women inn mediateiy tried to move the Rec and free the child and man. For an hour, with rain coming down instorrents and light hing flashing necessarily, they struggled tol aid the two who were beneath the wreck. Because of the heavy thunder shower no cars were passing, and as fac as the members of the party could see there were no houses in the neighbor- hood Finding a few logs near by, the men attempted to make jack to lift. the automobile, but their strength was not enough to raise it so that the bodies could be pulled clear from the wreck, Realizing that the child was pechaps fatally hurt, and MT. Slaiding suffering intense agony, they worked franticaliy. It was only when, an hour later, an au- tomobile came over the highway from
 Willimantic that help was secured and
 the injured ones freed. It was thought that the child was still alive and she was placed in the car that had offered help and was rushed to the Day KimbaH hos pitaI in Putanm. She was dead when brought there, and doctors said later that she had probably been instantly killed when the machine turned over. Another
 car from Willimantic which was follow ing the first brought MT Slaiding to the AAOS alive though on the dangerous list, with possible internal injuries.
 ] Wrecked Car Got Into Sand. ; l According to Mrs Slaiding, who was
 riding in the wrecked car, her husband
 got into the sand at the edge of the l macadam roadway. As he turned back
 on to this the rear wheels caught in the
 rim of the road and then suddenly skid
 ded on the oily surface. The top of the machine was up adding extra weight, so
 that the car overturned At the time of
 the accident Mrs. SIaiding says the car
 was going about 10 miles an hour. as it
 was impossible to drive faster owing to | the heavy rain.
 | Following the accident, Mrs. Morn in 1 Wiilimantic was notified and hurried to
 Putnam. The body Of the little girl was
 taken to Putnam undertaker's, and later was conveyed to Willimantic ] MT. Lyme was So unnerved by the ac- l cident that cost his daughters life that he was unable to drive his own car back 1 to Putnam and Stanley Schumanski of
 Phoenixviile was called to perform the | service.
