SOUDER, HEDRICK, RUSH. - On Friday evening, Aug. 3, in a tragic accident, five out of six occupants in an automobile met almost instant death when a trolley struck the car in which they were riding.
Ella K., widow of the late Wallace A. Souder and twin daughter of the late Bishop Joseph and Mary Ruth, was born Oct. 27, 1887; died Aug. 3, 1945; aged 57 y. 9 m. 6 d. Early in life she united with the Mennonite Church and was always a consistent, faithful member and an active Christian worker. In the Sunday school, sewing circle, and all church activities, she was present and contributed to her utmost for the success of every cause. Wherever there was a need in the community she was present to assist. Just two days before meeting death she visited her twin sister, who was ill, and assisted her with her household duties. From there she went to call upon her sister-in-law. As she drove out the lane, she cheerfully called out: "It doesn't matter when we leave, just so we're ready." We believe Sister Souder was ready. She is survived by one daughter (Margaret Rush), 4 grandchildren, one brother and 2 sisters.
This tragic accident took place at 8:30 p. m. Mrs. Souder, together with her daughter (Mrs. Hedrick) and the three Hedrick children and another grandson (Dale Rush), had spent some time in the recently enlarged Self-Service Market operated by Mrs. Hedrick's husband, Ralph B. Hedrick, in Lansdale, Pa. After leaving the store in the care operated by Mrs. Souder, they drove to the Hedrick home, north of Lansdale. Upon crossing the trolley tracks, on the private driveway leading into the Hedrick home, a northbound trolley hit the car with a terrible impact, throwing the car more than fifty feet. The car was terribly crushed and it is believed that both Mrs. Souder and Mrs. Hedrick died of broken necks resulting from the impact. The ambulance and Mr. Hedrick were called to the scene of the accident. The victims were at once removed to Elm Terrace Hospital, Lansdale and Mrs. Souder and Mrs. Hedrick were pronounced dead without being removed from the ambulance. Harold, Ella Mae, and Donald Hedrick and Dale Rush were taken into the hospital. Harold was immediately pronounced dead and Ella Mae twenty minutes later. Dale lived until Saturday afternoon, in spite of his serious injuries. Before his death he spoke some precious words to his father. Donald Hedrick, with a serious skull fracture, concussion, and a neck injury, survived the accident and is seemingly fully recovered. He alone is left to comfort his sorely bereaved father. Two funeral directors took charge of the bodies from the hospital. The Hedrick family was taken to the George R. Huff Funeral Homes in Lansdale and the bodies of Mrs. Souder and Dale Rush were taken to the Hunsicker Funeral Parlor in Souderton. On Monday evening approximately twenty-five hundred people viewed the bodies, clothed in simple white, without any flowers displayed, in these two funeral homes, giving a strong testimony for simplicity in death. The funeral was held in the Rockhill Mennonite Church Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 7. John E. Lapp conducted the devotional period, reading selections from I Cor. 15 and I Thess. 4. Jacob Z. Rittenhouse spoke from the text, Eccl. 9:5, and Clinton D. Landis from Amos 4:12. Wilson Overholt led in the closing prayer. There was a vast multitude of people present for the funeral services. An unusual part of the burial, in the adjoining cemetery, was that three separate committals were made - for the Hedrick family, Mrs. Souder, and Dale Rush. The Lord allowed the survivors of this family to be tried as Job of old, but demonstrated that His grace is sufficient for every time of need. Possibly few other individuals could demonstrate Christian fortitude under trial as these survivors. They thereby have given a powerful testimony to the sufficiency of the grace of God, to all in the communityGospel Herald - Vol. XXXVIII, No . 37 - December 14, 1945, page 718, 719.
