I believe this is the newspaper article that was requested. Paul "Kalamazoo Citizen Was Killed Sunday." Hit And Run Truck Hit Car, According To Mrs. SHARP, Wife of Deceased. William SHARP, 62 year old citizen of Kalamazoo, Michigan was instantly killed early yesterday afternoon as the car in which he was riding plunged over a seventy foot embankment on the Jellico highway about one half mile north of here. His wife, son and grandson who were also in the car were not seriously hurt, according to Frank AGEE, Undertaker. According to SHARP's wife, the car was hit by a speeding truck as it tried to pass. The truck did not stop after it struck the car, she said, and officers had failed to locate it early today. SHARP's car, an old model, was demolished. [Source: The LaFollette Press, Friday, 24 November 1936, Vol. 27, No. 94, p1.] "Sharp Family Send Thanks To Citizens." The family of William SHARP, who was killed in an auto accident on the highway recently asked that citizens of LaFollette who so generously helped them be extended their appreciation.
