While returning from a camp meeting at Dayton, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, Clara Zeigler of Elizabethville, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and one other person were seriously injured when the wagon they were riding in was struck by a trolley car of the Williams and Lykens Valley Trolley Line, about one mile east of Wiconisco. The incident was reported in the Elizabethville Echo of 20 July 1899:
Struck by a Trolley Car
What might have been a very serious accident occurred on the tracks of the Williams and Lykens Valley Trolley Line, about a mile east of Wiconisco on Sunday evening.
A wagon load of young folks from this place [Elizabethville] were returning from the Dayton Camp Meeting and and attempted to cross the tracks while coming down the steep hill near the Englebert residence. A trolley car, heavily loaded, was also coming down the steep incline at the time and a collision was the result.
The wagon was totally destroyed and the occupants thrown in all directions.
Two were seriously injured. They are: Mrs. Miller, Wiconisco, face cut and internally injured; Miss Clara Zeigler, Elizabethville, arm cut, back badly bruised, and internally injured.
