SODUS POINT BOY, HURT IN ACCIDENT, DIED AT HOSPITAL
Harold I. Comstock, 7-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Comstock of Sodus Point, near Rochester, who was seriously injured yesterday when an automobile driven by his mother ran into a Standard Oil truck, driven by Earl Weaver, No. 8 Sunnyside St., at the corner of West Avenue and Transit Street, died at the City hospital about 1 o'clock, this morning.
Internal injuries are given as the cause of his death. Dr. Lyman H. Wheeler, local coroner, is investigating the accident.
Besides his parents the boy leaves, three sisters and one brother, Ruth, Mldred, Edythe, and Lester. The body will be taken to the home of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Verity, of No. 468 Prospect Street where the funeral will be held Thursday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock. Burial will be in Glenwood cemetery.∼Harold was one of 5 children of Henry and Gertrude Comstock and born 4th. His life was tragically ended in an automobile accident. His mother had taken her children to see her parents in Lockport, Niagara County, New York and was on her way home when a truck hit them, seriously injuring her and shaking up the other children who had bruises. The family story was that the driver of the truck was intoxicated and hit their car with such an impact to eject Harold from the car.
The details on where Harold was buried are now known. The children and their mother were living in a house on the Strong Farm, Red Mill Road in Sodus on the south side of the road up on a hillside and east of 2nd Creek before the Alasa Farm-Shaker Road that heads south to Alton. Thanks to a Find A Grave administrator who created a Global memorial with a newspaper article, we now know he is buried next to his maternal grandparents in Lockport, New York where this horrible accident occurred.
