Running Itnckwurd He Collided With
Auto at Kiks Club Corner
This Morning.
Willie Hester, a little negro boy
collided with an automobile this
morning about eleven o’clock at the
corner of Jackson and Crawford
streets. The result was not fatal to
the boy but it did serious damage
to his face and head. It seems from
witnesses to the accident that the
boy was 'running from his brother,
both near ten years of age, .and
looking back as he ran.
Mr. J. E. Baker was driving from
Coolidge and turned into Crawford
at Jackson street. He did not see
the negro boy, but before he could
get around the curve, the boy was
upon him. Mr. Baker made a:i ef
forts to stop the car but not before
the boy was knocked down. None of
the wheels ran over him, hut his
face was bruised in several places
and his chin cut open. Doctor Lit
tle was summoned and immediately
gave necessary medical aid. The
boy was stunned for several min
utes but after a short time recover
ed and was taken home. He will not
suffer any grave injury.
