On January 2, 1927,Stricken with acute indigestion,
Montraville A. Anderson, aged 72 years, died while driving his automobile near Croton Lake Sunday morning.
The car with a dead driver plunged into the reservoir and remained
in almost an upright position for several hours before discovered.
Young people skating on the lake near Hunter Brook Bridge discovered
the automobile. Their attention was attracted to it by a large amount of oil and a bit of the rear of the car, caught on a
pile of rocks showed above the water.
Early Sunday morning, Mr. Anderson who resides with his daughter,
Mrs. Herman Engle, drove to see his son, Harvey Anderson, whose home is at Cornell Dam. Shortly after 9:30 he left there to visit friends in Peekskill.
A watch found on his body had stopped at 9:55 and it is thought that
this was the time of the accident. No water was found in ]in his lungs indicating that he had not met his death from drowning.
Neither were there any marks on the road to show that he had
endeavored to stop the car from plunging in the lake.
