w. G. Scott Injured
In The Mountains

w. G. Scott, Of Lexington, was
quite severely injured in the noun
tains Sunday by being run over by his
Ford. He had pulled up out of the
road to let other machines pass, and
getting out of the car to start it
up again, the brakes, apparently, did
not hold and the machine started
down the mountain. In order to
hold it, Mr.. Scott braced himself
against the wheel which passed over
his arm, dislocating it at the shoulder
joint. He was brought to town and
the shoulder put in place after an an
esthetic had been administered, and
he is able to be about his business
duties at this time. The auto was
checked in its course and very ser
ious accident avoided, but not until
after Mr.. Scott had received severe
injuries in so doing.
