Injured in Auto Crash
William Mccarthy of Bristol re-
ceived a very bad laceration of the
hand when an automobile in which
he was riding struck another ma
chine near the Triangle inn on
Pennington road about 3 o'clock !
this morning. Mccarthy was a pas |
senger in a closed car operated by
, William Flynn, also of Bristol, and /
the two men were returning from a
fraternal gathering in Unionville.
The fog was so thick that it was
almost impossible to see even the
lights of the oncoming car, and the
slippery road contributed toward
making the crash a certainty. The
machines hit head on, Flynn's re-
coiling and turning over. Fearing
that the gasoline would ignite, Nc
earthly sought to escape from the
car by the quickest means available
and smashed the window with his
fist. The broken glass inflicted a
long cash across the back of his
hand severing the arteries. He was
taken to the office of Dr. George r.
Cook, where seven stitches were
taken to close the cut.
Flynn and the occupants of the
other machine were uninjured aside
from shaking up. Both cars were
badly smashed. Deputy Sheriff E.
w. Furrey investigated.
