VERY SAD ACCIDENT,
And One that May Cause the
Death of Ned Billiard,
Noble Young Man.

Last Monday evening at the New
man Lumber Company's plant at
Sumrall a very sad if not fatal acct
dent happened to Ned Billiard, aged
abuot 26 years and brother Of Wiley
P. Billiard, an attache of the Prog
ress office While on a building
twenty-five feet from the ground he
was showing off some timber when a
nail which had been driven into a
piece and which was still protruding,
caught him in the shirt as the piece
the young man with it and he fell
twenty five feet across some timbers
below.
Of course he is hurt internally and
since the accident has suffered a great
deal. Yesterday the Progress
received a telephone message for his
brother Wiley to come at once and
he left on the O'Clock Pearl and
Leaf Rievrs train to be at the bedside
of his suffering brother and render
whatever assistance in his power.
This morning the Progress received
word that the young man was no
better. His condition seems to be
critical and he will be brought to
the South Mississippi Infirmary to
night.
This is indeed a sad blow to
young man so well liked and so full
of promise for the future, and the
Progress extends coincidence to the
relatives and friends of this noble
young man, and hope that he may
soon recover.
