Remarkable Escape From Death
on Cedar Mountain.

Pickens, Sept 2O-This morn :
ing Ed Stephens, his father, l. d
Stephens, and Il brother, were out
hunting on Cedar mountain about
seven miles west of Pickens.
Several kinds of game abound in
the mountains of that section and
all OF them being experienced in
the chase, they knew where to go
to find it. From signs best known
to them they became enthusiastic
in pursuit, when Eds path led him
dangerously near a precipice
about so feet high. That he
might be sure of passing the
critical point in safety he took his
gun in one hand and with the
other caught II projecting limb
which offered its service and hold
ing to that endeavored to swing
around the danger point, when to
his amaZcment the limb snapped
from the trunk and he tumbled to
the bottom. Strange to say not
a bone was broken but he was
bruised from head to foot and
taken up unconscious by his father
and brother who expected to find
him dead. His gun was broken
to pieces. He was brought to the
home of DR. Kirksey and received
prompt attention.. He is much
better today and will no doubt
recover and is the only live man
in the county who has fallen down
a mountain that far and lived "a
hours.
