Seriously Hurt.
Mr. A. D. Stafford, rural mail
carrier on Route One out of Mc
Crory, sustained serious injuries,
the result of a runaway Thurs*
day, while on his rounds. Being
slightly ahead of schedule, he
stopped under the shade of a tree
and got out of the buggy. With
out apparent cause, his horse be- j
came frightehed and started to
run. Jumping to catch the reins,
Mr. Stafford was caught by the l
hind wheel of the buggy and vio-,
lently thrown to the ground, se-!
verely brusing his head and hips j
and rendering him unconscious
several minutes. His physician
believes that no permanent inju
ry has been inflicted. Mr. Staf- j
ford’s many friends will be glad !
to know that he is resting well
this morning, and views the ac
cident like the optimistic philoso- j
pher that he is.
Mr. Stafford’s substitute, Mr.
W. B. Angus, will take care of j
Route 1 until his recovery.
