A Terrible Accident.
One of the most deplorable accidents
that has happened in Lexington in
years, in which two lives were nearly
extinguished in the twinkle of an eye
oocurred at Oaparis Stone Company's
plant near town at the noon hour las t
Monday. It is the rale of the company
to make blasts at the noon hour and
at the knooking off hoar. Theso blasts
are prepared by drilling holes in the
rooks and patting sticks of dynamite
in them. This stick is packed down
in the hole and held firmly in pltwe by
a casing of sand or other material. At
the time of the accident, Will Lorick,
a negro, and young Lnoios Bickley a
sod of our fellow townsman, J. J.
Bickley was engaged in this work, the
negro using a crow bar to uO the pack
ing when a premature explosion occurred,
seriously and perhaps fatally
wounding the negro and seriously in
juring young Bickley. It is reported
that Will Lorick, who is in a hospital
in Columbia cannot survive his inie
juries.
Mr. Bickley was taken to the Knowl
ton Infirmary in Columbia by Dr.
Derrick, and Mr. Frank Shealy in the
latters automobile, where an operation
was performed by Dr. Derrick, the
physician of the company, and Dr.
Kirby. Mr. Bickley sustained terrible
injuries about the face and other portions
of the body. He has lost the
sight of one eye and possibly that of
the other, Out this cannot be determined
until further developments occur.
Manager Bibb did all that he
could to render the suffers all possible
assistance, and he together with the
entire community deplor the accident.
