Date With Girl Broken
Because of Street Car
Mishap; Asks $4,000
Plaintiff Blames Trolley Company
for Failure to Keep Appoint
ment With Sweetheart.

Grady Nunnally of Woodward ave-
nue., plaintiff in superior court, thinks
that an appointment with a certain
young woman, which he says he was
unable to keep because of the Georgia
Railway and Power Company, was
worth $4,000. He has made the traction
company defendant in a damage suit
for that amount.
Nunnally told the court today that he
got on car at Woodward avenue and
Hill street last spring bound to keep
an appointment with a girl. He sat by
an open window. While rounding a
curve the car lurched and he was
thrown from the window. sustaining
minor injuries. He was taken to the
Grady hospital, but was discharged the
next day.
