Horry County's Auditor STEPPEO OFF PIAZZA Entrance to School Building Not Lighted, ?Neither any Railing.?Mr. Adams Stepped off and,Misged Footing,?Falling About Six Feet to Ground 0,i Wednesday night of last week after the lyceum attraction at the Burroughs School Building, as the crowd was leaving the building, couuty auditor N. C Adams, missed his footing on the steps at the entrance, and foil to the ground from the high e.utry a distance of six or eight foot, and received very painful if not serious ii juries by the fall. The entry was dark. The sleps do not extend the whole distance or length of the entry. Tnere is no railing to prevent stepping off. Mr Adams forge ting tnat the steps did not extend all the way across, stepped olf the edge and the fall wrenched and perhaps dislocated tho hip, nis foot was badly sprained, and he was otherwise bruised and irjured. Tho family physician Dr. J. S, Duesnbury, was immediately called and Mr. Adams taken home. iie has been confined to his room ever since, unable to walk, but it is stated that he will be out again very likely in a fo .v more days. As there was no light at the place of the accident, and no railing; it wiil appear that the same accident is likely to occur again unless steps are taken to remedy the situation.
