Phil¬ lips told of meeting a truck and appiing his brakes, said the car jumped to the left (to¬ ward the bluff) and that is all he remembered. Mrs. Joe Clark, who lives near the scene of the accident, reported that she heard some¬ thing like a tire that had blown out, and other sounds like a car back firing. She said that she heard the car rumbling down the mountainside. Mrs. Clark called to Mrs. Williams, a neighbor, to go for help. Several men gathered around the scene and started a search for the occupant cf the auto¬ mobile. Mr Ed Veal, one of the men who found Mr Phil¬ lips, said Phillips was about a quarter of a mile dow - n the mountainside from the car. How Phillips got out of the car or to where he was found is un¬ known. as he was unconscious when he was found. Phillips was carried up the mountain by .-everal men in an army blanket, which was a long and a hard struggle ac¬ cording to Mr. Veal and Depu¬ ty Rushel Smith. Sheriff Graham and Deputy Smith along with the State Patrol made an investigation. The officers said there wasn't any sign of a flat tire, or skid marks where the car had slide or any sign of skid marks where the brakes had been ap¬ plied. Smith said that it is 61 feet from the edge of the road to the bluff. B. T. U.
