AUTO LANDS IN DITCH
Al Ransom and Son, Phillip, Meet
With Accident on the Coon Grove
Road Sunday Evening.

Al Ransom and son, Phillip, met
with serious accident last Sunday
evening on the Coon Grove road,
which might have easily resulted in
the death of both, but fortunately they
escaped with few bruises. The car
in which they were riding smashed
through bride railing and landed on
it's side some fifteen feet below
Phillip Ransom was taking his faith
er out for little spin in their car
and while crossing the bridge near
the Frank Barrett farm in Coon
Grove lost control OF the machine. In
the twinkling of an eye the car
crashed into the bridge railing and
toppled over, landing on its side some
fifteen feet below. Fortunately both
occupants were thrown clear Of the
car and landed several feet away from
it and neither were badly hurt. Al
sustained a badly sprained arm and
was considerably bruised and his son
escaped with only few scratches.
Doubtless both Mr.. Ransom and his
son would have been crushed to death
beneath the machine had it not been
for the fact that when the car turned
over they were thrown some distance
and away from it. AL says that it was
an awful experience and one that he
would not care to go through again.
