MRS. PALUMBO'S MOTHER KILLED
The sad news of the accidental killing in an automobile accident, of Mrs. C. Palumbo, reached Payette Monday. As Mr. and Mrs. Palumbo were in Portland at the time the word was sent them there, and Mrs. Palumbo and the children at once took the train for the east.
About two weeks ago Mr. Palumbo received word of the illness of his father at Logansport, Indiana, and of the illness of Mrs. Cantanzano's father, Mr. Joseph Seminari, of Louisville, Kentucky, and he and Mrs. Cantanzano went east at that time. Mr. Palumbo returned home as his father was better and Mrs. Cantanzano remained with her father who passed away. As the funeral party was going from Louisville to Logansport, where interment was to take place a car ran into the one occupied by Mrs. Cantanzano and she was instantly killed and another lady occupant of the car was severely injured.
It is indeed a severe blow to Mrs. Palumbo to lose both her mother and grandfather within a couple of days and she certainly has the sympathy of her Payette friends in her hour of grief.
