Table Rock Argus, Mar. 22, 1935.

Fatal Accident

Monday morning Charles William Aylor, better known as Will Aylor, who has worked at the Edgar Woods farm for a number of years, drove a team of horses to the W. J. Binder farm for a load of oats. About 10 o'clock he had his wagon loaded and started back to the Woods farm, but the horses became startled and proceeded to run away. They ran down the drive way and swung east instead of west toward home and as they swung, the loaded wagon box left the running gears, throwing Will into a hedge tree. He was thrown head first and received the full impact of the fall on his head, thereby crushing his skull and then covered him with the oats. Help was summoned and he was immediately rushed to the Pawnee City hospital where aid was given him, but he lingered only until 12:30 noon without regaining consciousness.

Charles William Aylor was born September 27, 1873 in Van Buren County, Iowa and died in Pawnee City Hospital March 18, 1935. He came with his parents John and Eleanor Aylor to Table Rock in 1886.

On October 22, 1899 he was united in marriage to Wilma Heywood. To this union six children were born. Roy V. Aylor of Plattsmouth, Ray A. Aylor of Table Rock, Thelma O'Keefe of Humboldt and Faye Monasmith of Table Rock survive to mourn the loss of their father and bring comfort to the wife and mother. Eva and Katie died in infancy.

Besides the immediate family two brothers Norris and John of Table Rock, and three sisters, Ella Mort and Zella Covault of Table Rock, and Ollie McIntosh of Denver survive to mourn his passing. The immediate relation including the six grandchildren are joined in their sorrow by many others relatives and friends.

When Mr. Aylor was fourteen he was baptized into the Baptist Church in Clear Creek school house.

He was well known in this community and held in respect for his interest in his home and his faithfulness in his work.

Funeral services were held at the Christian Church Tuesday March 20 conducted by Rev. Embree.
