Mrs. Devlin was at the con- trols of the ear at the time of the accident. The tragedy was wit- nessed by Pat Mitchell a student at tthe school. The train slowed down quickly after ithe collision but the impact was sufficient to completely de- molish the car and dragged it along the track for 100 feet. The body of Mr. Devlin was found directly beside the car, he was killed instantly. Mrs. Devlin was found 70 feet from the point of .impact, unconcious, but still alive. Dr, Hendrick of Regina, a pas- senger on the train gave Mrs. Dev- lin immediate first aid until the ambulance arrived, when she was taken to the St. Joseph's hospital. She died later that evening. Dr. E. J. Brennan, acting as coroner, pronounced Mir. Devlin dead. City police conducted an im- mediate investigation of the fa- tality.
