Four boys, Karl Roberts, Edward Clahan, Raymond Bratton and Sam Prnflitt left early yeiterdny morning to go fishing near Darlington, on Sugar Creek anil spent the day there In the evening as they were on their y southward, toward home, they were coming at u fairly good speed, with Earl Roberts at the wheel of the csr. There is a dangerous turn near the Enoch bridge which the lioys evidently did not kn,iw about, and thev ent around this turn a little speedier than twenty miles an hour. As they came into full view of the bridge, as they swung around the turn, an automobile was seen to come out from the bridge. The boys declare they were within ten yards of the thtr car ut this time. Several wo men were in the other enr, according to Earl Roberts, and rather than hit that car, the driver preferred hitting the bridge, as there was no room to pass the other car, because of the narrow road.

Profit's fall was about fifteen or eighteen feet. He apparently struck on his head, hitting a piece of shale n the creek bank. However, he got to his feet and walked ahout a little before he finally fell to the ground. His companions immediately carried him to the road, and after finding a phy sician brought the boy to Culver l'nion hospital in the machine of A. S. I'ett. At the hespitul it was stated by the physician in charge, that outside of a sprained wrist, the injury to the head was the unly other result of the accident. The boy was unconscious all evening. Sam Proffitt is the son of Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Proflltt of New Ross, and a brother of Mr. H. J. Proffitt of this city. He is twenty years of age, and one of the best known and best liked boys in the New Ross community.
