MRS. KILBOURNE KILLED
BY AUTO ON EAST BROAD ST.

Former Prominent Society and Philanthropic Woman
Meets Almost Instant Death.

DRIVER IS NOT BLAMED

W. C. Moore Had Observed Lights and Started
Forward When She Was Struck.

>

While on her way home from a visit to a friend, Mrs. Anna B. Kilbourne, aged 73, first president of the Children's hospital and widow of Col. James Kilbourne, for many years president of the Kilbourne & Jacobs Manufacturing Co., was almost instantly killed at Cleveland avenue and Broad street, Tuesday at 6:20 p. m., when struck by a machine driven by W. C. Moore. 72 Auburn avenue.

Her death is the eighty-third fatality caused in traffic accidents in the county since Jan. 1.

Mrs. Kilbourne, who made her home at the Seneca hotel, was attempting to cross Broad street, enroute to the hotel from the home of Mrs. Ellen P. Gill, 28 North Jefferson avenue. Mr. Moore said that he had stopped for the traffic light and immediately after, proceeding east, shifted from second to high gear a fraction of a second before the car struck Mrs. Kilbourne.

Stopping the machine immediately, Mr. Moore, assisted by Tony Mino, 101 North Fifth street, and other witnesses, placed Mrs. Kilbourne in a taxicab in which she died on the way to Grant hospital, three blocks distant. Coroner Murphy pronounced death caused by internal injuries.

DARKNESS BLAMED.

Following the accident, Moore went to police headquarters and made a report.

Evidence obtained by police, it is said, shows that Mr. Moore was driving at a slow rate of speed and that extreme darkness at the street intersection caused the accident.

J. Russell Kilbourne of New York, who is on his way to Columbus, is the only surviving child. The late Mrs. Alice Kilbourne Jeffrey was the only daughter of Mrs. Kilbourne and the late George and Lincoln Kilbourne were other sons.

Two sisters, Mrs. Frank C. Eaton, New York, and Miss Helen Wright of the Library of Congress, Washington, D. C., and seven grandchildren also survive Mrs. Kilbourne.

Aside from the founding of the Children's hospital, Mrs. Kilbourne was prominent in many philanthropic enterprises. She had but recently presented a goodly portion of her extensive library to Denison university at Granville.

She was born in Newark and before her marriage was Miss Anna Bancroft Wright. She had spent practically all her life in Columbus.

Mrs. Kilbourne is said to have suggested the name of Bexley for the suburb. It is believed that she made the suggestion at a meeting of property-owners when the division was being formed, and that she had heard of the name at Gambier college.

The funeral services will be held at 2 p. m. Thursday in St. Saul's Episcopal church. Interment will be made at Green Lawn cemetery with the Schoedinger Co. in charge.
