Mrs. Annie P.
Johnson Hurt In
Auto Accident

GLENDALE, July 10 ~ Mrs.
Annie P. johnson, Glendale cor
respondent for the Herald, mar
roWly escaped death on the
morning Of July IA when her car
collided with heavy transport
truck in front of her home.
Mrs. Johnson was an expert
enced driver with a long safety
record, and the cause of her
driving in front Of a fast moving
truck may have been attributed
to faulty brakes or the high pri-
vate hedge that bordered her
lawn.
She was thrown clear of the
car which was utterly demol-
ished, and sustained skull frac-
ture, broken shoulder bone and
many minor injuries.
The sound of the crash quickly
drew Mrs Lucy Station and Mrs.
Pee to the scene who admins
tered first aid and took instruc-
tons from Mrs. johnson on car
ing for her home and personal
belongings before leaving for
Richmond in an ambulance.
Latest reports from Johnston
Willis Hospital give her condition
as satisfactory.
