H " ft .< - ^ 4-~ ~ 1 I c Automobile Accident L. Stephed Lindier, a young white man of the Hollow Greets section of this county, Was instantly killed when an automobile driven by Mr. Ross A. Barre, with whom he was riding, turned turtle in the public highway a mile and a halt north of Gilbert between I'l' and 12 o'clock Monday night. Mr.. Barre escaped witti & probable irao7J ture of a, rib and a few other mitybr'; bruisrs - Tli-car?a Ford 4-pa^SfirtrerJ machine?was completely wrecked. Mr. Barre ami Lindlef were eitfoute i home from Columbia, where Mr. Berre purchased the machine. The car was going at a high rate of speed, down grade, when withouu a second's warning it began to skid, according to the statement of the driver, and in an instant it had turned a doubie somersault, pinning Mr. Lindier beneath the left front wheel and throwing Mr ' ? k/v . On?MA irrOC . X>aiI U ill i.lic an. iu.r( uaii c wuo ivii dered unconscious by the fall, but when he regained his senses he went to a nearby residence and asked for a light. In company with M/. Zachari Taylor, he went back to where the wreck occured only to find hie companion pinned beneath the machine and life extinct. The force of the machine crashed the right chest of young Lindler and he was otherwise injured. "It was all done so quiclk that I can't tell how it happened," said Mr. Barre. "I lost control of the machine when it began to skid, and in an instant the car was wrecked." W. C. Weed, coroner of Lexington county, held an inquest over the remains of young Lindler yesterday morning, the verdict of the jury> being that the deceased came to his death by an accident, tha car being driven by JR. A. Barre. Mr. Lindler was about 23 years of age and one of the most popalar young men of the-rHollow Creek section of the county. He was the young-; eat son of Prof. and Mrs. a. a. nanaier, one of thetbeet known families in this miction of the State. Stephen Lindler was a former stndent of Olemson college and numbered his friends by the iobre." > * / . His remains were buried at Mt;< Pleasant Lutheran church, in the upper section of the county, at 11 this morning. ' This is the first serious automobile ! accident in the history of Lexington county, and it has been the subject of muen discussion on every side^ Mr. Barre has been for a number of years a rural mail carrier going out from Gilbert, He* has been driving a car for several years, but he had just purchased the touring car, which he was driving Monday night, in Columbia. He has been accustomed to driving a Ford Roadster. He i9 deeply affected by tie tragedy, and, along with the relatives of the dead man, is receiving the sympathy of mahy !

Instead of being dangerous. it is harmies and works easily and naturally, without bad aftere-ffects. I have Authorized Harmon Drug Co. to refund purchase price foOc.) to you instantly without question if you are in any way dis! satisfied with it. If Dodson's Liver j Tone can't help you, I don't want I vour mnnfiv.'' That's how Dodson feels about this pleasant-tasting vegetable-liquid liver regulator and reliever of constipation and biliousness. The lives of so many people have been brightened and bettered by this great remedy that leading druggists now recommend it and seven of America's most prominent physicians 0. K'd it, after thorough analysis of its ingredients and effects. It is generally known that calomel, being a poison, is a peril to many. It stays iD the system and, while it may seem to give you a temporary relief, often, "knocks you out" for several days. With Dodson'9 Liver Tone you are set right without ache or gripe and with no bad results to interfere in the slightest way with your regular occupation and habits. So great a number of former sufferers from constipation and inactive liver have been vastly benefited by Dodson's Liver Tone that it would seem wise for yon to pfive it a trial now. Children like it and it does wonders for them. adv. * ACCOUNT ?
