Good Thing Truck That Crashed Was Carrying Apples, March 5, 1924

Truck Wrecked Near the County Home

Ernest Rogers of Campbell lost control of his truck yesterday on one of the dangerous curves just South of Danbury on the Walnut Cove road, the machine falling some distance down the bank with the driver in it, but e was, strange to say, not seriously hurt.

The truck was loaded with apples. A full truck load of dynamite had just passed the point on the road where the truck of apples went off, and citizens were today speculating on the result had it been the dynamite truck that went over the fill.
