    Injuries sustained when his ear left highway 10 and plunged into a creek shortly Before 8 o’clock Tuesday night proved fatal am hour later to Frank A. Moss, widely-known St. Marys banker. The accident occurred. Shawnee county officials said today, just across the line in Jefferson county.

    Appearance of the road, near the scene of the crash indicated that a brake on Mr. Moss’ car locked, throwing him from the road and over the bank twenty feet into the creek.

    A farmer who; viewed the accident reached the car just as it was starting to burn. He extricated Mr. Moss from the wreckage, and he was hurried to Christ’s hospital in a Wall-Diffenderfer ambulance. He died at 8:55 o’clock. The car in which the St. Marys man was riding alone, burned.

    His widow, a son Jack, and his mother, Mrs. Frances Moss, all reside in the family home at St. Marys A daughter, Miss Frances Moss, was in Chicago at the time of the accident, and notified there. Mrs. Moss before her marriage, was Edith Guibor, of Topeka. Mr. Moss was widely known here; was a Washburn college graduate. His sister, Mrs. John Graham, lives in Kansas City, Mo.

    The family lived in Topeka for a few years after the end of the World war, altho Mr. Moss maintained his banking interests in St. Marys even at that time.

    A son, Frank Moss Jr., was killed in an automobile accident near Tonganoxie several years ago, while he was a student at the University of Kansas.

    Funeral services will be at St. Marys, Friday, but burial will be in Topeka, where his son is buried.
