Colored Boy Run Over by a Flat Car
and Badly Injured.
Last week ono of the flat cars on
the dummy line, not being in use, was
left standing under the company’s shed
In rear of the laundry. It was very
soon spied by some prying youngsters,
who are always on the lookout for
something In the devilment line, and
hauled out for a ride down the grade
which begins almost at the shed. The
fun was so great that other young
sters, both white and colored, soon
took part in it, and for several days
the flat car was kept busy. Friday
afternoon, however, a damper was
cast over the exhilarated spirits of
the crowd and the fun broken up,
when one of the number, a colored
boy named Pinckney Jefferies, was
run over by the car and his left leg
mashed to a pulp from above the knee
to the foot.
There was quite a scatterment of
the young fellow’s comrades in mis
chief, and he was left where he had
fallen till others, who had witnessed
the accident, picked him up and car
ried him to a nearby house, where he
was made as comfortable as his con
dition would admit till medical aid
could be given. Drs. Brown and Al
len soon arrived, and after a careful
examination of the injured limb It was
deemed necessary to amputate It.
This was done Friday night by the
physicians mentioned, who were as
sisted by Dr. Steedly. The operation
was successfully performed, the leg
being taken off just above the knee,
and the boy is doing as well as could
be expected, though it Is too early as
yet to predict with any certainty as
to the ultimate recovery of the boy.
The police arrested as many of the
boys as they could locate, who had
been playing with the car, and brought
them before Mayor Gaffney Saturday
morning. The mayor gave them a
talk and a warning, and then dismissed
them without further punishment.
Death of Capt. Bell’s Mother.
Capt. J. B. Bell was called to his old
home in Yorkville last week on a sad
mission, that of the death of his aged
mother, which occurred on Tuesday
night.
The following account of her death
is from the Yorkville Enquirer of the
10th inst.:
“Mrs. Martha J. Bell, widow of the
late Thomas J. Bell, Esq., died at her
home in Yorkville last Tuesday night,
after a brief Illness of pneumonia, su
perinduced by grip. Mrs. Bell was
a native of York county and was a
daughter of the late Sheriff J. M.
Brian. The seventy-third annviersary
of her birth occurs today. She spent
the greater portion of her life In
Yorkville and the immediate vi
cinity, had a wide circle of ac
quaintances and was held In high es
teem by all who knew her. She leaves
five sons and one daughter, as follows:
Messrs. E. F. Bell, J. B. Bell, D. W.
Bell, W. E. Bell, T. J. Bell, Mrs. J.
M. Brian. The funeral took place on
Wednesday afternoon, the services be-
ng conducted by Rev. Dr. W. G. Nev
ille. The pall bearers were as follows:
Messrs. James B., Donom W., and
Thomas J. Bell, Rufus E. Knox, J. M.
Brian and D. M. Hall, sons and close
relatives. L. R. Williams, Josepr F.
Wallace, A. Cody, E. A. Crawford, W.
J Gordon and T. M. Dobson, friends of
her late husband, acted as honorary
pall bearers All of the children were
present except Messrs. E. F. and W. E.
Bell, they finding it impossible to
reach Yorkville in time from the
places at which they received the sad
news.”
Capt. Bell has the sympathy of all
Gaffney in his great loss.

Died Suddenly.
Mrs. J. P. Robbs died at her home
near Grassy Pond Saturday night
about 8 o’clock, and wag burled yes
terday morning in the Robbs’ grave
yard. Heart disease was evidently
the cause of her death, as she was 111
only a few minutes, and had been in
good health, apparently, up to the
time of her last sickness.
Mrs. Robbs was about thirty-one
years of age, and she leaves a husband
and eight children, one a young baby,
to mourn for her. To them The Led
ger tenders its heartiest sympathy.

Shoe safety means a lot
of things that you want
when you spend your
shoe money. It means
being sure of good "quali
ty, good fit, good style,
good value for the price.
It means satisfaction to
you in every respect. You
are sure of this when you
get a shoe with the name
“Walkover” on it.
