Edmund J Bowers, 69 year old prospector of Rosamond died at Lancaster Hospital 
Monday night as the result of injuries sustained when he was struck by a car as 
he was standing near the entrance to his own driveway on highway 6. The car, 
driven by Robert N. Cox of Los Angeles, is said to have got out of control on 
the wet pavement and swerved across the road striking the aged man. He was taken 
to the hospital by a passing motorist, after Cox stopped to render aid. Mr. 
Bowers had made many friends during 15 years residence in Rosamond who regret 
his passing.
