Struck by an automobile driven
by Chauffeur Scheuteur at the
corner of Trade and Tryon at the
western end of the square last
night about Z o'clock Rev. Harris
Mallinckrodt was knocked down
and dragged for perhaps ten feet
beneath the car. The machine
was brought to a stop in a few
seconds and bystanders quickly
lifted the car from the PROSTATE
minister, who was unable to move
in his uncomfortable position.
He was assisted into the Bur-
well-Dunn drug store a few
feet away, where his injuries
proved tc be not serious. He
was rather badly bruised about
the shoulders and back, but was
entirely himself in a few minutes.
Mr.. Mallinckrodt was crossing
Trade, going northward. The
machine, owned by Norman H.
johnson, who was not in it, was
headed down West Trade. Each
saw the other but too late and
there was no time for either to
get out of the way. Mr.. Mallin-
ckrodt's many friends are ~rejoic-
ed that the consequences we're not
more serious, rs they might have
been.-Charlotte Observer, oath.
