Suit filed
in death
at church
Four damage suits totaling
$372323.05 have been filed in
Spalding Superior Court by a
Fayette County woman whose
husband was killed in a con
struction accident here in May,
1969.
Mrs. Lynette Holloway is
suing Marvin Lewis of 115
Elizabeth street, and Ed Lewis,
individually, and doing business
as Lewis Truck Service, and
Carlton Morris of Griffin.
Her husband, Den Holloway,
a construction worker, was
killed at the site for the new'
Wesleyan Methodist Church on
North Ninth street. An archway
being lifted into place by a
crane fell on him, crushing his
chest
The suits alleges that the
accident was a result of
negligence of the defendants
and that they failed to operate
and control the crane lifting the
beam in a safe manner and
failed to exercise ordinary care
in its use, resulting in the
beam’s falling on the
petitioner’s husband.
One of the suits asks for a
total of $167,823.05 against
Marvin Lewis doing business as
Lewis Truck Service. The
plaintiffs are Mrs. Holloway
and Mrs. Holloway for the use of
William T. Holloway, doing
business as H. & H. Framing
Co. and the Continental In
surance Co., and William T.
Holloway doing business as H. &
H. Framing Co., and the Con
tinental Insurance Co.
A suit totaling $15,480.80 was
filed against H.W. Bilbo and
Ruth C. Bilbo as a result of a
traffic accident on the West
Vineyard road, March 15.
Mrs. Mary Lee Tuggle of 1418
Tower street, individually and
as next friend of Jeffrey Scott
Tuggle, the plaintiff alleges that
she and her son suffered
physical injuries due to the
negligence of Ruth C. Bilbo who
allegedly backed her car into
the path of the plaintiff’s auto,
causing the plaintiff to strike a
culvert. W. H. Bilbo was listed
as owner of the car.
