Not On The Fence, But Through It.

While out campaigning in Whitd county Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. Warner, C. C. Warsier”s E-M-F auto took a notion to go through a wire fence about three miles west of Monticello. The fence was of woven wire and the auto easily knocked it out of the way, but a barb wire on the top was not so easily disposed of, and it caught Mr. and Mrs. Warner across the face and tore one side of the latter’s nose quite badly. Their clothing was also torn somewhat, but the machine escaped with only one bent fender. The auto ran some twentyor thirty feet into the field after

passing through the fence. Other autoists came along and assisted them to return to Monticello where Dr. Goodwin dressed their Injuries. Mr. and Mrs. Warner were returning from Monticello when the accident occurred, and after being patched up they resumed their journey, arriving here at about 9:30 that evening.
