On February 21, 1920, 13 year-old Gilbert Kuehl was riding his bicycle near the intersection of N.E. 17th & Glisan when he was struck by a car driven by Mr. William Daughtrey. About a month after his untimely death, Gilbert's father, Albert, who ran a boarding house, filed a wrongful death suit against Mr. Daughtrey for $7,500. There were no further entries in the paper about this suit, so it may have been settled out of court, as these things usually are.
