an lies in the morgue today the lat
est victim of the streetcars of this
city. Miss Melinn was struck last
night by a Valencia streetcar, drag
ged 40 feet under the running gear

The sight of the gray haired wom-
an lying lifeless under the car while

made for Lance by the mob and she
motorman and two policemen were
knocked down and trampled. At
that instant the wrecking crew and
two additional policemen arrived
and Lance was rescued

P. WHITAKER
KILLED BY CAR
Sal Down on Side of Track
While Drunk
We'll Known Man who Had Been
In Trouble Several Times
Is No More

p. Whitaker, man VINO has been
known In Greensboro for several years
by his bad repute and yet having the
name of being good hearted fellow
when sober, was killed by "A street car
last Saturday. He was returning home
When the accident occurred, having
just gone on the car before the one
that killed him.
He was sitting on tie side oi tie
track when the car struck hip and it
is supposed that he was sitting with
his face toward the outside of tie
track. The car struck him in the fore
head cutting large cash about three
inches long, knocking him backward
over the rail and the wheel passing
over his chest crushing his heart. His
right arm was severed from the body
and his left arm was broken. Ire fiji
gers of his rightbhand were cut oft
and were lying ON the ground when
picked up.
Several of his friends stated that
he vas drinking wnen he left town
for home and that re was almost COM
pletely intoxicated. He went TO the
barber shop early In the evening and
one OF tie BARRIERS stated HAT he was
Intoxicated then, ands after that he
was seen take several drinks with
friends.
Whitaker has been very, reckless
man during his life and has been in
the courts on many different charges.
He has served two terms In the pen.
once for murder and another time for
grand larceny. The first time he was
sent there he was pardoned by the
governor before serving half his time
out. He has always been known as a
good hearted fellow when sober, but
when he was drinking be was consid-
cred one of the most dangerous sort
of characters. He was Al years OF
age and was raised In Ohio county.
