      son of A W Maw & Emma Champlain

      "When the automobile of J.W. Maw of Salem was run down by an Oregon Electric train on the Fifth street crossing yesterday, Maynard Maw, 12 years old, received injuries from which he died." CJ Oct 10, 1925 5:6
      "Salem Boy Is Killed In Crash With Train--Maynard Maw, 12, Is Fatally Injured Sunday--Light Car Driven by Brother Is Wrecked by OE Near Highland Station--Maynard Maw, 12, who lived with his parents at 2135 North Fourth, was injured fatally Sunday noon when the Ford `bug' in which he was riding, collided with a Portland bound Oregon Electric train at the North Fifth street crossing near the Highland school. His brother, Russell, 17, was driving the car, and was injured about the right arm and hip. As he was driving the car the steering wheel saved him from being thrown through the windshield and onto the curb.
      Maynard was jolted through the windshield and struck the curb with his head, in front of the Fred F. Peters' home, into which he was taken rapidly losing consciousness. As soon as possible he was rushed to the Salem hospital, but died at 4 o'clock. The auto was tossed nearly 50 feet into a clump of rose bushes along the curb.
      It is said that there were several waiting at the Highland depot to take the train, and they had signalled for the train to stop. But it was not slowed up as quickly as usual, and it is thought that Russell misgauged the speed of the train.
      Mrs. J.W. Maw, mother of the boys, who was in Idaho Falls, Idaho, attending the funeral of her step mother, at the time of the accident, was notified and is returning home for the funeral of her boy, which will not be arranged until she arrives. Mr. Maw works at the Cherry City bakery. Maynard is survived by two younger brothers, Howard, 11, and Merrill, 2; a sister, aged 7; Russell, and his parents."
