Morrisett funerals held Wednesday. Funeral services for Mrs. J.D. Morrisett of Sparta, and her son, Clyde Morrisett of Ozark, who were killed in the auto accident north of Ozark last Sunday evening, were held at the Sparta Baptist church, Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. A double funeral service was held with Rev. Albert Hanks officiating. The services and burial were under the direction of the Klepper Undertaking Co. A church several times the size of the Sparta church would have been necessary to accommodate the crowd that attended the services. Mrs. Morrisett was a well known and greatly beloved character in her home town of Sparta and her friends, linked by a kindred friendship for Clyde who had lived there so long, where in attendance in great numbers. Added to the host of the Morrisett family friends and relatives at Sparta were those from Ozark. Clyde had identified himself thoroughly and favorably with the fraternal and commercial life of Ozark that he had won for himself an ocean of friends, and they too were in attendance. Being an active member of the Ozark Masonic Lodge, Clyde’s services at the grave were administered over by that order. The lodge attended in a body and almost every member went. The floral offerings were massed in beauty and great profusion, the offering probably being the largest ever seen at a funeral service in this county. The pangs of this lightning like bereavement are too severe upon relatives for us to interview them this week for a complete obituary of Mrs. Morrisett and her son, Clyde, but next week we will have more to say of the lives they had lived in this and to the immediate community. To these anguished souls who mourn, the most sincere sympathy of the community is theirs but at this hour what is meant for consoling and comforting words are only weapons which reopen a grieving soul. May these good people find some thought and see many acts which will comfort and appease their saddened hearts and next week we will speak of the lives their loved ones lived.

Two killed; six injured late Sunday evening. Accident happened near the Wills place north of Ozark on Highway 65. Mrs. J.D. Morrisett of Sparta and son, Clyde, of Ozark die shortly after collision, others injured were J.D. Morrisett and son, Fred, Mrs. Clyde Morrisett and Billy Johnson and occupants of other car, Charles Russell of Willard and Miss Fern Redfearn of Ash Grove, charges will probably be filed. Last Sunday evening about 6:15 o’clock two cars, one a Ford Sedan, having as its occupants, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde-Morrisett and Billy Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fray Johnson, of Ozark, and Mr. and Mrs. J.D. Morrisett and son, Fred, of Sparta, and the other, a Chevrolet coach, carrying Charles Russell of Willard and Miss Fern Redfearn of Ash Grove, collided head on near the Wills place, about a mile and a half north of Ozark on Highway 65. All eight of the occupants of the two cars were injured, Mrs. J.D. Morrisett and her son, Clyde, fatally, dying within a short time after the accident. The others suffered either minor or serious injuries, none of which have as yet proved fatal, although Mr. Russell is in a Springfield hospital suffering with a fractured skull and much concern has been held for his recovery. Miss Redfearn, Mr. Russell’s companion suffered a broken leg. Mrs. Clyde Morrisett and Billy Johnson who were riding in the front seat of the Ford Sedan with Clyde both sustained minor injuries but apparently seem to be recovering nicely and are able to be up. Mr. Morrisett and Fret both suffered just minor injuries consisting of cuts and bruises. The car carrying the Morrisetts was coming south and was taking the curve just west of the Wills place, near the north and had turned out to pass another car when the impact occurred. Joe Chaffin, who lives just east of the scene of the accident, hurried to the crash and assisted by others who stopped as they arrived, spread the alarm of the accident. Ambulances and physicians were notified and in short time the injured were in hospitals either at Ozark or at Springfield. Mr. and Mrs. Fray Johnson rushed their son Billy, to a Springfield hospital where he was given medical attention and we are glad to report that although Billy is confined to his bed he shows improvement and the hope is that he will make a speedy recovery. The populace was deeply saddened when it heard of the injuries received by so many and then when deaths began to take its toll, it was little less than abject remorse that cast its gloom over the community. As we go to press Wednesday afternoon, friends are returning from the funeral held at Sparta at 2:30 o’clock for Mrs. Morrisett and her son and the word comes that it was without doubt the largest funeral service ever held in Christian county. Conservative estimates place the number that attempted to gain entrance to the little church at Sparta at 1500 and this number was augmented by the large number who merely went to the cemetery knowing they would be unable to find room in the church. Word also comes at press time that the injured are all well on the road to recovery and are all out of danger. It is understood the accident has been fully and carefully investigated by the authorities and from reports that reach us action will be taken in the matter, against the driver of the Chevrolet coach, who, as the evidence shows as accumulated by investigators, made an unlawful attempt to pass another car on the hill and curve in direct violation of the highway traffic rules and regulations.
