Late Saturday afternoon as Mr. S.M.B. Forrest of Selma was coming to Smithfield in his buggy, a truck driven by Mr. G.R. Pittman, ran into him, Mr. Forrest sustaining painful injuries. The injured man was brought to Smithfield and carried to the home of his daughter, Mrs. J.E. Brodgen. He was later taken to the Smithfield Memorial hospital where an X-ray revealed no broken bones but internal bruises. He was able to be carried to his home in Selma yesterday, and unless pneumonia should set it, no serious consequences are feared.
