A SAD ACCIDENT.
In front of his father’s yard gate
near Fake’s Chapel was the scene
of a sad accident last Friday, Sept.,
4, which resulted in the death of
Wylie Vanlandingham, aged 21
years. The deceased, in company
with Leroy Glenn, had mounted
their mules and were on their way
to McCrory, riding at a very rapid
gait, when, as they got opposite I.
N. Vanlandingham’s home, the
mule that Wylie was riding turned
towards the house and his rider
not wanting to stop there, with a
quick spur, immediatley reined the
animal back into the road and as he
did he and the animal were thrown
so near a tree that Vanlandingham,
being in a leaning position, struck
his head against the tree as they
passed. The mule, it seems intend
ed passing to the left of the tree
while Vanlandingham intended go
ing to the right The blow was fatal,
death claiming him about 10 o’clock
Friday night. He was unconscious
from the time of the accident un
till he died.
Had he listened to the pleadings
of his affectionate wife to whom he
had been married about two years
he would have no doubt been with
her in their happy home many
years hence, but no, that vile and
damnable stuff called whiskey had
more control over him than all
else and he heeded not her plead
ings, thus sending his soul into
eternity.

pleasure were derived from each.
The crowning feature, however,
