At Lake Norman

Two men were injured and hos
pitalized as the result of a 30 foot
fall last Wednesday at Cowans
Ford Dam in the Mecklenburg-
Lincoln County area.
Taken to a Charlotte hospital
George Willis and Bobby
Barnes were seriously hurt when
hitch came loose on their scat

below.
The scaffold the men were work
ing on was suspension type and
could be lowered or raised by
the men on it, explained Fred
Kennerly, assistant resident ensi-

since the rope holding the scat
fold had to run through the block
and tackle" he said.
The accident occurred about
1918 am. and the two men were
rushed Immediately to Charlotte
Memorial Hospital.
