INJURED
INODD ACCIDENT
DR.. William o. Bailey, in Pre-
venting Auto Crash, Is Him
self a Sufferer.

DR.. William o. Bailey, of 10 Hill
street, was painfully injured by the
eapsizing of his automobile in Broad
street, near Lafayette street, shortly
after 7 o'clock last night, and his
machine badly damaged.
The physician was proceeding in a
westerly direction on the proper side
of the street when an automobile de-
livery wagon came swiftly in an op-
posite direction and cut directly
across DIR. Bailey's course. just as an
automobile belonging to the fire de-
partment emerged from Lafayette
street.
The delivery wagon chauffeur
made no attempt to avoid what APP
peared to be a certain collision, put
tho physician cranked his steering
gear sharply to prevent crash.
Like a flash the physicians ma
chine turned turtle" throwing the
doctor to the pavement and pinning
him underneath. There was quick
rush TO the doctors assistance. FIRE
Chief Moore, who had reached the
scene as the delivery wagon shot
bv and down Lafayette street, the
driver apparently desiring to escape
arrest. with the assistance OF others'
extricaled the doctor.
The letter, it was found, beside pc
ing severely shaken up and bruised,
sustained a fracture of a small bone
in his right forearm.
Witnesses to the accident declared
that it was only DIR. Bailey's quick
ness of action and willingness to risk
personal injury that prevented more
disastrous results. That he was not
crushed to death, in his effort to avoid
a collision with the reckless driver OF
the delivery wagon, is considered re-
markable.
Attemps to overtake the lying
chauffeur or to establish his identity
were futile, as he dashed down La
fayette street at dazzling speed and
speedily disappeared.
