INJURIES CONSIDERED SERIOUS

X-ray examinations made of the injuries received by William Lee and John Bunris last Friday when their auto turned over in the ditch near Mt. Ayr, showed more serious injuries than first supposed. Although both are now out on the streets, they will not be back to their old form for some time. Lee received some bad cuts and bruises about the face and head, a dislocated elbow and is carrying one arm in a sling, while Burris suffered a dislocated shoulder and is otherwise considerably bruised. The Intimation that perhaap the water of Curtis Creek had something to do with the accident is strongly denied; they had only been to Mt. Ayr to secure some tools, Mr. Lee states.
