From the Newark Advocate (Newark, OH), October 10, 1904

"Kansas City, Oct 10. -- The Omaha and St. Joseph express on the Missouri Pacific railway ran into an open switch as it was leaving the yards and collided with a freight train. Fourteen persons were injured, two seriously. Mrs, J.M. Partello, wife of Major Partello, commanding officer at Fort Reno, Okla., sustained an injury to her back, her wrist was broken and she was badly cut about the face, while her daughter Florence was bruised and suffered from a nervous shock. Mrs. Partello's condition is said to be critical. The injuries of the others were slight, and they continued on their journey. Among them was Major Partello, who escaped with a sprained leg."

The train accident described above resulted in a lawsuit in which Annie was awarded $5,500. Her health, reportedly, was seriously compromised for the rest of her life.
