This image displays a historical newspaper clipping from the Boston Record, dated June 19, 1950, preserved and mounted on a card labeled “BOSTON NEWS CLIP” from 120 Tremont Street, Boston 8, Mass.
The clipping has a bold headline: “9 Killed, 42 Injured In N.E. Road Mishaps”, summarizing a tragic weekend of highway accidents across New England.
The article reports that three people were killed and a fourth died later from injuries sustained in separate accidents on New England highways, bringing the weekend’s total fatalities to nine and injured to 42.
The report details several fatal incidents:
New Hampshire: Two motorcyclists were killed — William Price, 19, of Cookesville, Ontario; and Frank R. Lown, 22, of Bangor, Pa. Five others were injured. Price was fatally thrown from his cycle in West Henniker; Lown was struck by another cyclist after falling from his machine in Tilton. Jack Edmandson, 32, also of Cookesville, was slightly hurt. Another cyclist severely injured was Rudolph Des Chesne, 17, of Nashua, who suffered a skull fracture after colliding with an auto in Manchester.
Vermont (Barnard): Arnold H. Waters, 17, of West Woodstock, was killed instantly when his car went out of control.
Cambridge, Massachusetts: Miss Anne S. Thomson, 25, assistant curator at Harvard’s Fogg Museum, died at Mt. Auburn Hospital from injuries received Saturday night when she was hurled from her bicycle after being hit head-on by an auto on Coolidge Ave.
Boston/South End: A total of nine people were hurt in two separate two-car collisions (at Dartmouth St. and Warren Ave., and South End and Hancock St., Quincy). Two Brookline women were seriously injured and hospitalized at City Hospital, while four Greater Boston men were treated and released.
The clipping also has handwritten markings: “Foster, 16, and Peggy Sannon, 16.” appears just below the headline, with “13-55” (possibly a library or archive reference number) written in red ink to its left.
The clipping is slightly aged and yellowed, mounted on a white card with a metal paperclip visible on the right edge. The overall impression is that of a preserved historical artifact, possibly collected for reference or personal interest.
