THE OLD FAIRBANKS
HOUSE
Sunday afternoon, as the people
were leaving the Providence church
at the close cf the memorial service,
A. C. Chrisman was knocked down
by a Ford car which came up behind
him <>n the incline leading from the
church to the main road. It i* not
i
known just how the accident occur
red, but it is thought that the diiv-
er became excited when people be
gan to call to Mr. Chrisman warn
ing him of hia approaching danger.
It is said the driver held the car for
a time and then for some reason
seemed to let it go.
Mr. Chrisman was knocked down
and the front wheel of the car ran
over bis leg and bruised his hand,
but f. rtunately no bones were bro
ken. After being rescued from un
der the car by friends he was able
to walk, although suffering consid
erable pain. He is 87 years of age
and live« with a son. W. E. Chris-
man. at Lebanon.
