The suit was the result of personal
injuries sustained by Mr. Wheeless
more than a year ago. The accident
was very. peculiar one. He attempt
ed to cross the street behind an auto
driven by ], S. Brown about twilight
on a Sunday afternoon when he step
ped in loop Of a wire being dragged
by the car. The wire wrapped around
his ankle and he was dragged con
siderable distance before onlookers
could attract the attention Of the driv-
er. Mr., Wheeless' hip was dislocat-
ed, and he lay in a Vicksburg hospital
for several weeks before being oable
to walk.
Employees of the telephone company
were engaged in repairing the lines
along the road which the car travelled,
and Mr.. Wheeless contended that they
carelessly left wire in the road and it
vas this which caused the accident.
He entered suit for $4,000 in the cir
