Small Boy Injured by Car While Visiting Relatives in Gaffney, S.C., Aug. 29, 1919

From the Brevard News, Aug. 29, 1919

Small Boy Injured by Auto

Hady Jolly has returned from Gaffney, S.C., where he went to visit relatives. He was accompanied to South Carolina by his small son, Wm. Robert, who met with a serious accident last Friday. While crossing a street in Gaffney he was knocked down by an automobile. He fell with his head directly in front of a front wheel of the car and was dragged for some distance along the graveled street with his head against the wheel. He was badly bruised and lacerated. Most of the flesh was torn from his skull. 

The injured child was taken at once to a Gaffney hospital and at last reports hope was entertained for his recovery.
