April 5, 1935 – In a harrowing incident that left onlookers shaken, a truck careened out of control on Corey Hill in North Cromwell, Connecticut, on Wednesday night. The vehicle, carrying two brothers, Galen V. Larrabee and Harrison Larrabee of 50 Tolland Street, Middletown’s Middlesex Hospital was their only refuge after the devastating accident. The truck, in a split second, sideswiped an automobile driven by John P. Bozzi before overturning and crashing through a fence, sending its occupants tumbling.
