and wended their way to Lincoln,
where, with Mr. O. J. Hitchcock as
the third party, they visited the
Evangelical Lutheran church, 11th
and F streets, where the Rev. Maz-
ner feeds the flock. It was a refresh
ing and. inspiring service. Our ob
servation was that the service was
very solemn and dignified no hurry
ing and no "First, second and fourth
stanza" was sung, but the whole
hymns and no connection broken.
The theme of the discourse was
"Knowing and Growing," according
to I Thes.. 4:1-7. First to know God's
will, be born into the family of
God's children: then to grow in the
Christian graces and keep our vessel
(our body) into which God has plac
ed an immortal soul, clean and fit for
the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. It
was a very prontame service anu a
most satisfactory visit. The pilgrims

DEPMR TMEmT,
Mrs. A. L. Bixby
Killed Instantly
as Car Upsets
Doctor Bixby Also Injured in Acci
dent Thursday While En Route
to Battle Creek.
Mrs. A. L. Bixby, wife of Dr. A.
L. Bixby, State Journal poet-philosopher,
was instantly killed and Doc
tor Bixby was injured, tho not ser
iously, when the car driven by him
went into a ditch ten miles north
of Seward on the Sunshine highway
Thursday morning shortly after 10
o'clock. The couple were en route to
Battle Creek where Mr. Bixby was
to deliver a lecture before the coun
ty medical association. The victims
were taken to Seward by passing mo
torists and Dr. Bixby's injuries were
attended by Dr. Bert Morrow. He
sustained a broken collar bone, two
broken ribs and his arm was badly
bruised. The accident occurred as
the car was descending a rather steep
hill. Altho the road is gravel those
who were first at the scene said that
the car had skidded and gone into
the ditch. The gravel was wet and
the tracks of the car indicated that
the brakes may have been applied
as the car started down the incline
causing it to skid. The embankment
is not high there, about four or five
feet, and the car did not go clear
but landed on its side.
W. H. Frost and wife of Lincoln
were first to the scene of the acci
dent and took Doctor Bixby to Sew
ard. Doctor Bixby said he was driving
at a moderate rate of speed and en
countered a steep hill north of Sew
ard. It was freshly graveled and his
car slipped off the grade and upset
in the ditch. He was caught under
the car and couldn't see his wife.
When he spoke to her and she didn't
answer, he thought she was probably
unconscious.
Mary Adelle Bates was married to
A. L. Bixby at Estherville, la.. May
14, 1878. Five children were born
to them, four of whom are now liv
ing: Mrs. X. M. Johnson. Salt Lake
City, Utah; Mrs. Charles Burns, Lin
coln. Neb.; Roy Bixby. Portersville,
Calif., and Lorena Bixby, Pocatello,
Idaho. Lillian passed away many
years ago at the age of eleven, as
will be remembered- by the readers
of one of Mr. Bixby's most pathetic
poems. All the living children had
planned to be home May 14 for the
celebration of their parents' fiftieth
wedding anniversary.
Mrs. Bixby came to Nebraska J
, with her husband in 1878 soon af
ter their marriage and pioneered
courageously with him first on the
Pawnee reservation in Nance coun
ty, and later in North Platte, where
Doctor Bixby practiced medicine un
til the spring of 81. The record of
her helpfulness in all Doctor Bixby's
enterprises has been recorded by him
for many years under 'Daily Drift"
with the home name. "Mollie."
Since 1S92, when Doctor Bixby
came to Lincoln to conduct a column
on The Journal, having previously
been in newspaper work at Columbus
and Fullerton. Mrs. Bixby had made
her home and family her first in
terest, altho attracting also a large
circle of other friends thru her sin
cerity and kindliness. She was a
member of the Methodist Episcopal
church and for many years affiliated
with Trinity at Sixteenth and A
streets. State Journal.
