LAneman for United Telephone Com

Quincy Lee. . lineman for the
United Telephone company, sus-
tanned two broken ribs and othei
serious injuries when he was struck
and run over by an automobile driv'
en- by Albert zumbrum about 6:lb
O'Clock Tuesday evening. The acct
dent occurred on the road between
Enterprise and Detroit. Two ribf
on the right side we're broken and
torn loose, one kidney was Injured
head was badly cut and part OF the
skull taken out. He was brought
to Abilene and is resting fairly well
today and is conscious. Lee lives on
North Mulberry street.
Lee and Walter Daniels, q fellow
lineman, were walking toward De-
troit when Zumbrum came from De-
troit in his five-passenger touring
car. Daniels was in the lead and
stepped out of the way OF the ap-
preaching car. Whether Daniels did
not see the car coming. or whether
he miscalculated the speed Of 1t and
thought he had more time to leave
the cars path, has not been learned
as Lee has not been able to tell
much about the accident. After the
car passed him, Daniels turned
around and saw the car strike Lee.
Zumbrum was driving on the right
side. The car pulled Lee under the
wheels and dragged him for ABOUT
80 feet, as near as can be learned.
Mr.. Zumbrum stopped the car as
soon as he could, and took the in
jured man to Enterprise, where a
physician was called. Another ply
sician was called from Abilene.
Lee was unconscious for some
time and as soon as he regained
consciousness asked II he had fallen
off pole. He was brought to Abb
lene on the Rock Island this morn
ing and taken in an ambulance to
his home.
From what has been learned at
present, neither Lee nor zumbrum
can be blamed for the accident.
Daniels says that Zumbrum was
running at q good rate Of speed. If
Zumbrum sounded his horn Daniels
did not hear it. r. B. Gemmill,
traffic manager of the company,
went to Enterprise but was unable
to say who, II anyone, should be
blamed for the accident.
Mr.. Zumbrum lives on the Wag-
ner place between Detroit and En-
terprise and is considered good
driver.
