Penhollow, of 211 Crescent St., Jamestown, aged 51, was instantly killed Saturday evening when a car he was driving was struck by Train 6, the fast eastbound passenger train on the Erie Railroad, at about 10:30. Penhollow’s wife, Pearl, 47, and Leland M. and Marian Fuller, both of Jamestown escaped unhurt. According to an investigation conducted by the Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Department and Coroner George a. Middleton of Little Valley, Penhollow, his wife and the other couple, were enroute to Jamestown after stopping in this village. Apparently, Penhollow took the wrong street and in seeking to return to Route 17, he turned onto what proved to be the main line of the Erie Railroad. Coroner Middleton said the man drove 155 feet up the track before he halted the car. A man ran up from the crossing and told the occupants that a train was due, and the three stepped from the car, but Penhollow could not be persuaded to leave, authorities reported. The train demolished the car. Penhollow suffered a crushed head and a crushed chest. Coroner Middleton issued an accidental death certificate. The victim was employed by Nelson & Son, Jamestown’s garbage contractor.

PJ: 1/8/1958: Everett (Mack) Peterson Jr., 12, of Dutch Hollow Road, died at 4:15 this morning in WCA Hospital of injuries suffered early Saturday afternoon when the toboggan on which he and four other youths were coasting was struck by a car in front of the administration building at Allegany State Park. Coroner Samuel T. Bowers said this morning that he will issue a certificate following investigation into the cause of death. Hospital authorities earlier had listed the boy’s injuries as a ruptured kidney, elbow fracture and head laceration. An operation to remove the injured kidney was performed early Sunday morning, and when a shortage of available blood developed, blood was brought here by sheriff’s deputies from Red Cross supplies at Buffalo, and was also given by two volunteer donors. The boy’s condition was listed as critical from the beginning and special prayers for him were said at services in many Jamestown and area churches Sunday morning. The boys were members of the two confirmation classes of Lutheran Immanuel Church, which were on a picnic at the park, and had left the main group to toboggan on the front lawn of the administration building. The boys were making their first run down the hill, which ends in a park road and when they reached the foot, the toboggan was struck by a car driven by Alonzo Sharpe, 30, Red House, a park ranger off duty. Park officials said Mr. Sharpe was driving about 10 miles an hour when the accident occurred, and apparently did not see the boys because of some bushes along the roadside. Three other boys were injured in the accident, Gary Swanson, 12, of 127 Camp Street, is listed in good condition today at WCA Hospital, and Wayne A. Johnson, 12, of 1372 Newland Avenue, and Conrad Junior Erickson, 12, of 521 Foote Avenue, were discharged from the hospitals, earlier after treatment for injuries. The fifth boy, Howard Culver, 12, of 408 East Eighth Street, jumped from the toboggan before the accident. Everet, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Everet Peterson, who operate a dairy farm on the Dutch Hollow Road, just east of Ellery Center, was in the Seventh Grade at Bemus Point Central School. He was a serious boy, well liked by his neighbors, who saw him frequently driving a tractor and helping his father with the chores around the farm, or riding the horse which he owned and cared for. In addition to his parents, he is survived by two sisters, Esther and Victoria; two brothers, Vincent and Oscar William; his grandparents, Mrs. Esther Peterman of Jamestown and Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Peterson of Pierson, Fla., formerly of Jamestown, R.D. 1; two aunts, Miss Eleanor Peterson, Jamestown R.D. l, and Mrs. E.
