Receives a Fractured SkuIl-Mr.
Hammond, of Milford, Hurt

Postmaster William H. Robinson.
of Milford, is lying in the Delaware
Hospital, Wilmington. with fractured
skull, and Harry Hammond, a fellow
townsman of Robinson, is nursing
minor injuries received when an auto
mobile in which they were riding was
dltched at Hams Branch, between
Smyrna and Dover. Mr.. Robinson
and Mr.. Hammond had been summoned
TO Wilmington on that evening
to refute statement that they had
been engaged in distributing cards at
tacking Congressman ThomasW. Mil
Ter. The two men were to have ar
rived at Magistrate Broman's office
there at 9 o'clock to make affidavit
that they had nothing to do with the
matter. The accident was due to the
fact that the men were blinded by the
glare of light on the automobile
owned and operated by State Senator
Barnard, who was going toward Dover
from Smyrna, while Postmaster Rob-
inson and Hammond were proceeding
north. When the light on the Barnard
car blinded them Robinson and Ham,
mond steered their car into a ditch,
which caused the machine to turn tur-
tie, throwing Robinson against a tele-
graph pole. Senator Barnard stopped
his machine and picked up Mr.. Robin
son, who was unconscious, and Ham
mond, who was bleeding freely from
cuts, rushed them in his machine to
Smyrna, where DR.. W. v. Messick
was summonded. DIR. Messick, after
examining the injured men, ordered
their removal to the Delaware Hospi-
tai in Wilmington. 1t was at first
reported that Hammond had sustained
broken back, but an examination
made at the hospital showed that
he was only slightly injured. Harvey
Wright's large touring car was pro-
cured and the injured men, accompanied
by DR.. Messick were rushed to the
hospital. Later reports have it, while
Robinson's condition is still serious,
there is said to be hope now for his
recovery.

He Stops His Auto in Time to 0revent
Worse lnjury-BoY Taken to Hospital
While motoring last Thursday up
among the hills around Media and
Swarthmore, Mr.. and Mrs. Norris
Truax and party of friends had the
misfortune to run over Stephen Hacke,
a small boy about 10 years of age, Of
Swarthmore, Pa, who dashed across
the road in front of their car. They
were passing along the pike entering
Media and the boy not noticing Mr..
Truax' 8 car, jumped off porch and
run across the road directly in front
of the car. One wheel passed over
him. Picked up in apparently a
serious condition, he was hustled to
the Media Hospital. The Truax's
naturally felt much concerned until
they heard Monday that the boy was
fully recovering and no bones had
ben broken. Mr.. Truax was only driv-
ing 15 miles an hour when the acci-
den happened and this accounts for
the lucky escape of the boy, The lat
ter admitted at the Hospital it was
entirely his fault.

such articles.
