Georgetown, March 13.?By the nar
rowest margin the Hon, W, D. Mor
gan. ex-mayor and president of th<
Bank of Georgetown, escaped deatr
in horrible form on Wednesday. Onl}
his presence of mind and quick actior
saved him from being smashed by th<
locomotive of a log train, with whicfc
his automobile collided at the Sampil
road crossing, four miles from town.
^ Mr. Morgan was himself at the
wheel of his car. On the same seal
was his chauffeur. As the au:omobil<
approached the crossing Mr. Morgan
told the chauffeur to look in one direction
while he looked in the othei
fnr tho r>ni?sihlp annrnaeh of a train
The road crosses the track diagonally
so that it is necessary to look backward
in one direction and forward ir
the other to see up and down th(
track. The chauffeur was instructed
to look back. Whether he misunderstood
his instructions or not, he looked
back into the body of the automobile,
and not back down the track.

When Mr. Morgan himself took the
backward view the log train, followed
by the Marion Branch passengei
train, was almost upon the crossins
and running at a pretty good rate oi
speed. The auromobile was moving
at low speed, but it was speed enougt

VBERRY'S FAVOR
2 just the same time the locomotive
would get there.
%
Seeing the peril of the situation and
realizing that instant action was essential,
Mr. Morgan called to the
chauffeur to jump. But the chauffeur,
apparently frozen with fear, did not
move. Mr. Morgan thereupon quickly
sprang over the man's knees and
* jumped to the ground. So close was
1 he to the track that he had to jump
backward to save himself frcm being
1 hit by the* engine. The brake was not
' set on the automobile and the machine
kept on, with the chauffeur in it. The
' forepart of the auto got across, but the
pilot of the locomotive struck the rear
' wheel and body of the car and threw
- it about 25 feet.
Chauffeur Lands in Ditch.
i
The chauffeur went out of the machine
as if from a catapult and landed
on his head in a ditch. The auto
stopped at the edge of the ditch. Had
it fallen on the man he must have been
^ killed outright. He was severely
bruised and will be laid up for a num
j ber of days. No bone was broken.
Conductor Murphy stopped the pas.
senger train at the scene of the acci.
dent and offered any assistance in his
power. The chauffeur was sent to
town on the train.
? By happy fortune Mr. Morgan sus.
tained no injury save a shaking-up.
He caught on his feet when he jumped,
r which showed agility for a man in his
r sixties. He caught a passing buggy
r and continued on to his farm, a couple
t of. miles distant. lAt the farm he sei
cured a team and was driven to town.
