last year when "Al" Robinson was

ANDERSON AUTO ACCIDENT.
DR.. Isrcedin and Children in Near
Fatal Smash-Up.
(Anderson Mail, 26th.)

What came near being a fatal ac-
cident occurred Thursday afternoon
when Dr.. Breedin, driving his auto
mobile, struck a stump in the road,
ditching his car and seriously injur-
ing his daughter, Mary. who was
riding with him.
DR.. Breedin had been out on a
call, taking his two daughters, Eliza
beth and Mary, with him, and was
coming down a steep hill. The road
was very rough, and the stump was
partly concealed on the side of the
road by some small brush. AS the
car neared the stump it struck a
rough place in the road and iolted
Elizabeth against DR.. Breedin's arm,
and he was unable to turn aside
from the stump, striking it with COLI
siderable force and almost COM
pletely wrecking his car.
The axle, wheels. radiator and
hood of the car were badly damaged
and the windshield was shattered
into a thousand parts. Elizabeth
was cut severely by the flying glass,
one cut being on her throat, another
on the knee and she was otherwise
bruised and hurt.
Mary was thrown out of the car,
|strik1ng her head and being rendered
unconscious for several moments.
was revived and taken to St. Mary's
Hospital, where she Is now resting
very easily. DR.. Breedin states that
the accident came near being a very
serious one. and 1t was only good
luck that saved his daughter from
more serious injury.
DR.. Breedin was caught under the
steering post and consequently was
not thrown against the Windshield.
Aside from being bruised by the
steering post. he was uninjured.
