Oscar Kyson Killed In Car Wreck Saturday

Funeral Services Held At Corinth Sunday Afternoon, Rev. Cullen In Charge

Funeral services for Oscar Kyson, 28 years old, who was killed when the two-door
Chevrolet sedan, which he was driving turned over on the Marble Querry Road Saturday
night, were held at Corinth Cemetery, Sunday afternoon, Rev. A.H. Cullen, pastor
Winnfield Baptist Church, was in charge.

According to reports, Oscar Kyson, his brother, Roy Kyson, and Sam Dunn, and Grandell
Pruitt of Bentley were driving on the paved Marble Quarry Road and were in the vicinity
of Mr. Varnell's residence. When a car started to pass them they speeded up their machine
and moved to their side of the road. None of the occupants of the car seemed to know just
how the accident occurred, but it is presumed that a wheel of the car got off the pavement,
causing the car to turn over. The car was completely wrecked. Roy Kyson, brother of the
one killed received severe cuts on one hand. The others were slightly injured.

The deceased is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kyson, of Ward Nine, and Mrs.
Jack Downhour of Shreveport; and four brothers, Wade, Troy, Roy, and Jack, all of Ward
Nine.
