Thursday, March 22, 1945 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE, CLINTON, S. C. Page Five Second Fatality From Motor Vehicle Accident In County This Year Laurens, March 15.—Frank DeWitt Davis, 34, of Wattsville, died Mon day night at the Laurens county hos pital as the result of injuries he re ceived Sunday afternoon in a motor cycle accident near Maddens. Funeral services /vere^conducled from Lucas Avenue Baptist church with the Rev. C. P,' Chastain in charge, assisted by the Rev. Jodie A. Martin. Interment was in Rose Hill cemetery. According to reports received from investigating officers, Davis was rid ing with a group of three other mo torcyclists, one from^ Wattsville and two from Union. He was the front | cyclist coming towards Laurens and! met a car occupied by Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Burns and driven by Mr., Burns. Mr. Burns was quoted as say- i ing that Davis apparently lost con-1 trol of his machine about a dozen; yards in front of him,, was thrown j off and hurled to the side of pie pavement. ' The motorcycle grazed the Burns- car and skidded down the highway. D. M. Phillips of Watts- vftle, the second cyclist, turned over in the adjacent field in avoiding Da vis and his machine caught on fire. The officers said that the-vrear tire of the Davis motorcycle was found to be blown out when they made their investigation. This led to the theory, expressed by some, that the blow-out caused Davis to ' lose con trol of his machine. WEEK-END TRIPS .. VISITORS .. ILLNESS BRIEFS...
