    Notes 
    • Not sure if Carrie was married prior to A.B. Hunt. The three sons last name of "Matthews" would seem to indicate this. Not sure if the daughters' maiden name is "Hunt" or not, so left off any maiden name. In my research at this time online, I could not figure it out.

The car was brot to a standstill Without damage to the machine. Mrs. Hunt was taken to a Neodesha hospital.

    Mrs. Hunt for about two weeks had been at the bedside of a daughter. Mrs. Lula Smith, who has been seriously ill with pneumonia south of Neodesha. Her husband went after her Friday and was returning to Topeka with her and another daughter, Mrs. May McGuire, at the time of the accident.

    Besides her husband and her three daughters, she is survived by three sons, Archie Matthews, Kansas City. Kan.; Frank Matthews. Parsons; and Cash Matthews, Wichita.
