Miss Schneider was laying on her back in the road, while Mr. Molstad was laying near the ditch and under the running board of the car. First aid was given them and they were taken to Medford, where they were place under the care of physicians in the hospital.
Mr. Molstad was injured about the head and face, suffering with a fractured skull and was also internally injured. Miss Schneider, upon examination under the X-ray was found to have a broken back and suffered injuries about the head. Miss Schneider died on Tuesday, and the body was taken to Thorp for burial.
