Wild Automobile Chase
Leads To Wreck OF Car And Injury
or Twin Sisters

OF Twin Sisters
A wild auto chase Sunday evening
between eight and nine O'Clock, end
ed in the wrecking of car, when 1t
struck an electric light pole, and the
serious injury of two young women:
While cruising along Route One,
near Porters Bridge, in an auto on
Sunday evening, Deputy Sheriffs e.
wood Racine and Louis Seth spied
Nelson Howery, aged 26, roadhouse
operator, for whose arrest a warrant
had been issued.
Howery, who was driving a high
powered Lincoln car, in which were
his brother Page Howery, and Virgie
and Virginia Walton, twin sisters,
aged %, saw the officers and stepped
on the gas, leading them merry
chase along Route One, to Rising
Sun, and then out Wilson Avenue.
Going at SIS or 20 mile clip, Howery
failed to make the curve in the road
near the lane of the Glackin farm,
about one mile south of town, crash
ed into an electric light pole, snap
ping it off, wrecking his machine and
injuring both the young women.
The men escaped with a few scratch
es and bruises, and were placed I'M
der arrest.
The young women were brought to
DR.. r. G. Dodson, in this town, where
it was found Vergie had suffered a
fracture of the right leg, which was
X-rayed and put in cast. Her sis
ter had three front teeth knocked
out and suffered decorations of the
face. Both were later taken to Union
Hospital, Elkton.
At hearing before Police Magis-
trate George l.. Ewing, Nelson How
cry was placed under $500 bond ON
the liquor charge held against him.
The swapping Of the electric light
pole caused disruption of light SER
vice in this town and at other places
that were on that particular line.
Some of the residences in Rising Sun
were without electric light until
about ten o'clock, when service was
restored. At the Methodist Episco-
pal church, here, it was necessary to
terminate the religious services, and
dismiss the congregation, as the
church was abruptly plunged into
darkness.

House Looters Jailed
Hauled Truck Load Of Fur
niture Away During Alb
sence Of Family

Charles and Frank Weston, Wilm-
ington, are behind the bars in the
county Jail at Elkton, charged with
entering the home of John Krejci, on
Nottingham Road, one mile west of
Elkton, and hauling away in a truck
practically all the furniture in the
building, several nights ago, while
the family was temporarily away
from home.
According to Deputy Sheriff Ell
wood Racine, who made the arrests,
both men have made confessions.
Mr.. Racine said he located the furni-
ture in house in Wilmington. A
mishap to Westons truck gave the
officers a clue following the theft.
When the truck was backed up to the
building it was mired in soft earth
while the furniture was being loaded
on it. When the engine was started
it did not have sufficient power to
move the machine whereupon one of
the men, it is alleged, went to Cedar
Tree Garage on the Elkton-North
East Road, and hired a tow-truck.
Mr.. Krejci operates filling sta
ton along the Elkton-North East
road, just outside the town limits Of
Elkton. His wife and children were
not at home when their furniture
was taken.
