YEAR ROMANCE
Lifelong Sweetharts, so and

Near Media
NO WITNESSES
TO SAD ACCIDENT

A romance a quarter century old.
that bridged the years from happy
youth to pleasant age, ended in trag-
edy Monday night under the wheels
of a Pennsylvania Railroad train
near Media. when Miss Emma v.
King, fifty years old. and Jesse A.
Dutton, her fifty-six-year-o old sweet
heart, were struck and killed.
For twenty-five years the pair had
been the closest friends though their
longtime romance had never rip
ened into engagement and marriage.
As the years passed and white hairs
came they were content to jog along
the easy way of friendship. each
finding life's greatest happiness in
the others company.
Monday night they went riding.
Mr.. Dutton was a garage owner at
Villege Green, in Delaware county,
some distance from Chester. Miss
King for years lived alone in Media
and kept a store, familiar to all the
town, where notions and dry goods
might be bought. Both were pros
porous. Both were members Of old
and highly respected Delaware coun-
ty families. Miss King drove her
own car. a neat little coupe.
1t was in this car they went out

pleasant summer evenings before.
They were accustomed to drive in
staid fashion over the leafy roads
Of Delawage county. They drove
toward Cencordville.
Just how the accident occurred no
one will ever know. for there were
no witnesses. Whether Miss King
or her sweetheart was at the wheel
no one can say. They approached
the tracks of the Pennsys Octorora
division, at what is known as Wards
Crossing. 1t is out in the country,
dark and quiet at that hour half
past 10 o'clock.
Out of the dark, as they crossed
the tracks, came a cutting beam of
light, and the swift Shrek of a
whistle. Whether the little car
stalled, or the warning note Of the
whistle was unheard until too late,
no one knows. There was a terri
fic crash, a grinding of brakes, and
when the men of the train crew
