The bodies of Mrs. Bdssie Lyle and her baby daughter, Margaret, lie at a local undertaker’s today, awaiting a double funeral tomorrow morning. Mother and daughter were hurled from an automobile in Luckie street yester day afternoon and crushed to death be neath the wheels of a trolley car which had struck their motor from behind. W. Richard Lyle, a railroad conduc tor, who lives at 279 Luckie street, was driving the car, with his five-year old daughter in the front seat beside him, and neither was injured. Mrs. Lyle and the baby were in the rear seat and received the full force of the impact when the street car struck the tonneau. The accident occurred at 1 o'clock, and mother and child died at the same moment in the Atlanta hos pital three hours later. The accident was one of the most peculiar that has occurred in Atlanta, and appeared to be one of those bits of circumstance which apparently are un avoidable. Lyle ran his auto back wards down the alley from his home into the street, reversed his lever and prepared to go ahead and turn toward the city. An incoming East Hunter car came over the hill at Alexander street and bore down on the auto. Lyle at tempted to' drive across to the right side of the street to avoid the trolley, when the rear of the auto jammed against a tree. Lyle worked furiously to send the car ahead of the trolley to safety, but the auto would not move and the crash followed. The automo bile was jammed into the curbing and against a post, badly smashed by th>- impact. n “Brakes Applied Too Late. “If the motorman had put on his brakes sooner he could have stopped his car,” said Lyle today. 'The top of the hill is about 150 feet way, with a down grade to the point where the col lision occurred. He didn’t throw on his brakes until he was within two car lengths of my auto. His car was run ning slowly when it struck. "J tried to back out of the way of the trolley, but the rear of my auto struck a tree. Then I tried to go ahead and cross over, but my wheels spun and wouldn’t take hold.” Mrs. Lyle and little Margaret were hurled into the air. over the side of the auto, and directly in front of the trolley car, which was still grinding its way through the wreckage of the mo tor. Baby Margaret fell In the track, and both her legs were severed near the hips. Mrs. Lyle was wedged under the trucks and fatally crushed. Lyle sprang from his seat, seized a small automobile jack from his tool box, and worked in a frenzy to raise the heavy street car from his wife’s man gled body. At last he succeeded, and fainting from shock and exhaustion, was lifted into the amunlance beside his wife and rushed to the hospital, where Baby Margaret had been sent several minutes before. Die at Same Moment. Mrs. Lyle did not lose consciousness, but it was, clear from the first that she could not live. Lyle was forced to leave her for a while and return to hit home, but shortly afterward received a THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEWS. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1912.
