A Lima Packing Co. meat delivery
truck made its regular stop at the
Myrel Gossard general store, one
mile north Of Bluffton on the Dixie
highway, in spectacular fashion at
$50 a. m. Monday morning by
crashing into the front of the build
ing and causing aggregate damages
estimated at $1,000.
Skidding into the store porch, the
truck overturned, breaking a large
plate glass window and demolishing
the door at the front entrance.
Damages to the truck were estimated
at $7O0, and repair of the store will
cost about $500.
Richard w. Schulz, the driver, OF
Lima, said that brakes of the truck
locked as he attempted to make the
stop, causing the vehicle to skid
into the building. He had to break
the glass in a jammed door on the
overturned truck in order to get out
OF the WfecKaSe.
The truck was making a regular
stop at the store to make a meat
delivery. No one was on duty at
the establishment, for the store had
not yet opened for the days business
at the time the mishap occurred.
Escapes From Wreckage
After escaping from the cab of
the truck, Schulz came into Bluffton
to telephone for another vehicle to
pick up his cargo. Driver of a
Plezol bread truck who came along
35 minutes later, awakened Gossard,
who lives nearby, to notify him Of
the crash.
Meat, oysters and other food were
scattered around the wrecked truck.
Later in the morning when the
truck was righted and taken away
by a wrecker, the Bluffton fire de-
partment was called to stand by at
the scene. Gasoline from tn ewreck-
ed truck had soaked into the ground,
and the fire truck was summoned to
be on hand in case of fire. Services
of the firemen were not needed
An investigation of the accident
was made by the state highway
patrol.
