A 50-year-old Havana woman who had been unconscious since an auto accident early Dec. 12 died Monday at St. Francis Hospital, Peoria.
She was Mrs. Thomas I. (Fern C.) Boggs of 1002 S. 11th St.
Mason County sheriff’s deputies investigated and said Mrs. Boggs was alone in her car headed east on a blacktop road near Easton and about 13 miles east of Havana. They said her car apparently skidded in gravel and went into a ditch.
