IN ACCIDENT
Clinton Boy Seriously Injured At Parr
Shoals When Ann and Shoulder
**" Blade Are Severed.
Garrison Montjoy, son of .Mrs. W. P.
Montjoy of this city, was the victim
last Wednesday of a very serious acci
dent at Parr Shoals, a power plant
of the Broad River Power company*
at Columbia. He is now » patient in
the Baptist hospital, at Columbia, and
grave fear has been held for several
days over his condition. It was stat
ed yesterday by his physicians that his
condition remains about the same, and
that unless new complications develop,
he has a chance to recover. His moth
er is with him in Columbia and has
been at his bedside since the deplora
ble accident occurred.
-Mr. Montjoy was showing a new
man how to operate a machine used
in unloading coal from the cars and
carrying it to the cleaning and pul
verizing plant, when he noticed a nail
had been caught in the magnetic wheel
and he climbed up the ladder ..to the
wheel which was about 50 feet from
the ground. WTiile attempting to re
move the nail his left arm became
caught in the machinery and was lit
erally torn from his body, bringing
(with it his collar bone also. Mr. Mont
joy never lost consciousness and after
the accident descended the narrow lad
der to the ground and walked unas
sisted to the commissary some 200
yards pway and was there placed in
an automobile and started to the Bap
tist hospital. He was met on the road
jby an ambulance and was rushed to
the hospital. Upon his arrival he in
sisted on walking into the hospital,
but the attendants'* refused to allow
him to do so. •
Mr. Montjoy showed unusual grit
and stamina in that he never did lose
consciousness or flinch during treat
ment of the injured part. Many peo
ple who saw the wound marveled at
the grit and strong constitution of
the young man. He chatted with
friends who later called on him at the
hospital and told them in detail how
the accident occurred. y
Although the wound is of a very
serious nature there is hope of his
recovering, but it will be a long a te
dious heal.
Mr. Montjoy has been employed by
the Broad River Power Co. for two
and a half years and has proven a
valuable employee. He was acting in
the capacity of clerk to the chief me- j
chanical engineer at the time of the'
accident.
