that Friday was the best day

movement. The attack begun
yesterday was the most eXten-

largely down hill, where they
put behind them the high

no shelter for their guns and
observation points for the ar

STRUCK BY PASSING CAR.
Robert Williams, Aged S Years, In
lured on NJ Washington Friday.

jured on NJ Washington Friday.
Robert c. Williams, the fiveyear-
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Victor VIII
iams, was knocked down in front OF
the Williams home on North Wash
ington Street Friday afternoon by a
car driven by Velie c. Suggs. The
boy was crossing the street and was
about the middle of the street when
Mr.. Suggs saw him and stopped his
car, or almost came to a stop. The
boy saw the car about the same time
and turned quickly to run back to-
ward his home. When he did that,
Mr.. Suggs thought all danger had
passed and put the gas to the car to
drive on. But no sooner had he done
this than the boy under the excite
ment wheeled and turned again to
20 back across the street as he had
originally started. BY that time Mr..
Suggs was too close upon him to stop
the car, and he turned 1t as abruptly
to the right as he could and the boy
was knocked down, the car dashed
into the parking and struck an iron
post and a tree in front of the Moran
Scott home, and the car was wrecked.
The car was coming toward the south.
The boy sustained bruised back and
the left leg has two bruised spots.
When seen yesterday afternoon the
boy had a little fever and was COM
planning with his leg
The injuries do not seem to be OF
a serious nature at all, although they
are painful and will keep the boy in
for a few days. He is taking but lit,
tie nourishment and is suffering some
pain. although he takes an active in
terest in all about him, and at one
time Friday night he woke up and
recognized Mr.. Sugps standing by his
bedside He asked about the car and
had no feeling of resentment
Mr. Williams, father OF the child,
said it was an accident, and that IS
all that could be said Of it. That Mr..
Suggs was not a speeder, and while
he suffered intensely from fear for
the safety OF the child he did not feel
that Mr. Suggs was to be blamed in
the matter. that he did all that could
be done to avert the accident
The boy had been frequently told by
his mother that some day a car would
run him down. and when the acci-
dent occurred he told his mother he
was not going to cross the street any
more.
