NARROWLY ESCAPE DEATH AS
CAR PLUNGES INTO CREEK

Monday evening as Mr.. s. S. Brad
shaw of GAINESVILLE and lady friend
from Crooksville were returning
from Eagleport where they had
been fishing, they had a thrilling
experience, which might have re-
suited in instant death AS they
were nearing Durant they drove off
the road into a creek. The bridge
which spanned the creek had been
washed away in the high water of
about two weeks ago. While tenn
pOrary bridge had been erected
over the creek, and a detour from
the road led to the temporary
bridge, in the darkness Mr.. Brad
shaw who was driving the Ford
car, did not notice the detour in
time, and drove off the Abutment
into the creek, distance of about
ten feet. The car turned over in
the water which was about four
feet deep. Mr.. Bradshaw was not
hurt much, but the lady accompa-
nying him was pinned beneath the
machine and suffered severe in
juries. They were in the water
about half hour before help ar
rived. The first to arrive was Mr..
Phelps of GAINESVILLE, who was re-
turning to that city. Later DR.. w.
R. Foster of this place, who was
coming home from GAINESVILLE was
on the scene, and the two yoon res
cued the unfortunate couple.
Mr.. Bradshaw was here Tuesday
and stated that he did not see that
the bridge was gone until he was
within ten feet of the abutment.
Had he seen it a little sooner he
could have brought his machine to
a stop before it reached the abut-
ment.
1t is stated that campers had re-
moved the barricade which was
across the road leading to the abut-
ment.
