A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
I
Child Struck by Automobile and
Internally Injured.
Harold Steele, the twelve-year-old
son of Mrs J B Steele, was seriously
injured here Friday afternoon,
when he was struck hv an automobile
in front of his home on East
Main street. The machine was driven
by Mr W H Carr, and it seems
that the headlights failed to work.
He was returning to town from the
country and in front of the Steele ,

many Christian graces. The lemains
were earned to Bethel church,where
she spent her childhood days, having \
been a lifelong member of the
*
Bethel Baptist church, and there,
in the presence of a large gathering
of friends, services were held, j
The Rev B X Truluck and the Rev i
W J Truluck officiated, and the body |
was laid to rest in the Bethel cem- .
etery beside the graves of her loved
ones. Besides her husband, she left
i five children, as follows: Dr Liston
McKnight, of Florida; Mrs Geo C
Cusaac, Scranton; Mrs L G Kennedy,
of Andrews; Mr Willard McKnight,
Miss Lila McKnight and Rukes McKnight,
of Scranton.
The Habit of Taking Cold.
With many people taking cold is a
habit, but fortunately one that is

Also sleep with your window up. Do
this and you will seldom take cold.

A Trip to Bloomlngvale.
Last Sunday Mr L Roy Cates of i
of the Kinestree Drug Co, and this 1
scribe drove down to Bloomingvale
to spend the day with our friend,
Mr W 0 Camlin. On starting out ^
we found the weather cold and crisp, j
but the day soon developed into one i
of sunshine and pleasantness. Mrs ]
Camlin gave us an excellent dinner .
after we had sat around a rousing j
iightwooa nre ior ttu uuui ui ou.
Then we took a stroll over Mr Cam- 1
lin's place, inspected his saw and ]
planing mill, grist mill, ginnery, the
huge silo, his large pen of well bred ]
hogs, his barn and mules, his fine t
lot of pure bred cattle and the con- 3
crete dipping vat he has installed s
for the eradicating the baneful 1
cattle or fever tick. We also took
a good look over his fields which he
has largely sown to oats and vetch,
Mr Camlin, we believed to be one r
of the county's wide-awake, progres- '
sive farmers; his place convinces us j
that our judgment was not amis.
He is splendidly fixed, and every ,
year marks great improvement j'
upon his premises. He needs an;
automobile, since he is so far from j (
Kingstree, so that he and his> good j,
wife and their children can run over j
here in less time than it takes a j
horse to bring them.
Deeth of Mrs R E McKnight.
Scran ton, January 10:?Mrs Isa-1 '
bella A McKnight, wife of Mr R E\;
McKnight, of this place, died at her 1
home Thursday afternoon. 1
residence a wagon load 01 coai was
standing on the side of the road and
heading into the Steele yard. The
load was too heavy for the team to
pull up the embankment and Harold .
was at one of the rear wheels, when
the car ran into him, mashing the
little fellow between the wagon and
the automobile. The night was very
dark and stormy and with no lights i
on his machine it was impossible i
for Mr Carr to see the wagon. i
Sunday night the little fellow was
taken by Drs Kelley and Hemingway
to McLeod's infirmary at Florence. ,
They were accompanied by Mrs ]
Steele and Mr Carr, who has been:
/waoti^ HictrPdspd over the accident I i

ever since its occurrence and has
done everything: in his power to aid j
in alleviating the boy's sufferings.
On Mr Carr's account as well as on
that of the child and his mother
there is a feeling of profound sym- i
pathy in the community.
At the infirmary an operation was j
performed and it was found that 1
the intestines had been punctured, .
and for a time scant hopes of his recovery
were entertained, but today, (
