DR.. AND MRS. MATTHEWS
IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT
Car Overturns But Neither Serious.
ly Injured DR.. Matthews Highly
Esteemed In Pocomoke

The friends and acquaintance of
Rev. DR.. r. B. Matthews will learn
with both regret and satisfaction that
he and Mrs. Matthews were in a seri-
GUS automobile accident last week,
from which both emerged without ma
terial injury. The Easton Star-Demo-
crat has the following notice of the
occurrence:
"The Rev. r. B. Matthews, rector of
St. Thomas Episcopal Church, had a
narrow escape from serious injury and
possible death when the automobile
he was driving upset. DR.. Matthews
was on his way to conduct services in
church near Salem, N. j., and when
approaching that town the machine
skidded on the slippery road, plunged
down an embankment and overturned.
DIR. and Mrs. Matthews were bruised
and suffered from shock, but were
apparently not seriously injured"
DR.. Matthews has made many
friends in Pocomoke City both by his
genial nature and by his frequent ap-
pearance before Pocomoke audiences
whom he charmed by his logic and elo-
quence. He left Worcester county
much to the regret of not only his
Snow Hill parishoners but of all 9th
ers who ever came into contact with
him. 1t is the general hope that he
and his wife may not suffer an incon-
venience from their mishap.
