/, SIX PERSONS INJURED IN
AUTO COLLISION ON PIKE
Cumberland Man Was Driver of
One of the Cars Involved
In the Wreck.

Six persons were more or less seri-
ously injured Saturday afternoon last
when an automobile driven by Robert
Maltby, Cumberland, collided with an
other machine on Pursley Run bridge,
at the foot of the west slope of Negro
Mountain on the National Highway,
two miles east of Keyser's Ridge in
this county. Both machines were
Bucks and were practically demol-
ished.
The wreck occurred about the CEN
ter of the bridge and was caused, it
is said on account of the inability OF
the drivers to control their cars be-
cause of the slippery condition of the
road and the prevalence of a heavy
fog which prevailed at the time al
most entirely obliterating their view
of the road for any considerable dis
tance.
Maltby and passenger in his car
were taken to Cumberland for medi-
cal attention, while the occupants of
the other car, which bore an Ohio
license and whose names could not
be learned, were taken to a nearby
farm house where their injuries were
dressed by a Grantsville physician.
The Ohio car was owned and occupied
by family of four persons.
Two other wrecks of a less serious
nature were reported as having oc-
Cured on the National Highway near
Grantsville on Saturday.

A Letter From Minnesota

To the Editor of The Republican.
Thinking perhaps little sketch of
my travels would be of interest to
the readers of your paper, 1 will
write.
We (myself and Mr.. and Mrs. S. E.
Brodwater, of Elk Lick, Pa, were
with me to Fillmore) left Meyers
dale on Thursday afternoon at 1928
and arrived at Preston, Mimi, Fri
day night at 1870, travelling by the
B. & O., Pennsylvania Central and
c., N. & st. Paul Railroads. After
spending a week in Fillmore county
| went by automobile to Benson, in
Swift county, distance of three hun
dred miles. We made the entire dis
tance with the exception of twelve
miles the first day, which l consider
very good for a lizzie. The last II
miles we covered the following morn
ing before breakfast over as bad a
road as l ever travelled. 1t was all
over new grade. They grade roads
in this section and then put on about
four inches of gravel, which makes a
fine road but would not stand the
heavy hauling we have in the east.
En- route we passed through the
towns of Spring Valley, Austin, St.
Peters, Litchfield, Maukato and Muir
dock. Maukato is quite an historical
town as there were II Indians hung
there in 1862 following the killing of
as many whites in that town and at
nearby places.
At Benson l stayed a week with
my cousin; saw much good land and
lots of oats and flax not yet threshed
as it has been quite wet Oats is a
good crop. One family 1 visited
near Benson had just finished thresh-
ing over 4200 bushels. While at Ben
son l went about twenty miles to see
former Garrett countian-Daniel
Saucerman-who was reared near
Grantsville. He lives near Hancock,
in Stephens county.
From Benson l went by auto to
Aitkin, ITO miles north, crossing the
Mississippi at Little Falls, SO miles
above Minneapolis, keeping up this
river to Brainard. There l met an
old schoolmate whom l had not seen
since my school days. After spending
few days and seeing the enormous
iron ore mines, went by bus to Min
neapolis, 127 miles, making the run
in five hours and stopped twice for
gas and 20 minutes for lunch. We
drove for 80 miles on the shore of
Lake MALAGA, which is said to be the
third largest lake in the State.
At Minneapolis l stayed with a
cousin, then came by rail to Lime
Springs, Iowa, which is IA miles from
my old home in Minnesota; passed
through Mortified where the Youn-
ger brothers and the James boys
made their raid on a bank in the early
seventies and met their Waterloo.
Expect to see the mountains soon.
