Three Die in Auto Accident. . . Occurred Near Winston-Salem Sunday Night—Occupants Were Pinned Under Large Car

Winston-Salem, May 25—Mrs. Eunice Atwood, Pleas H. Norman and Henry Brown, all of this city, were instantly killed last night, when the car in which they were riding turned over about five miles from town, on the Lexington highway. The occupants were pinned under the car and death resulted instantly.

According to parties near the scene at the time, the car was traveling at a rapid rate of speed, and it is believed it turned over several times, finally stopping headed in the opposite direction from that in which it was traveling. The top was completely torn off, and other parts of the car, a Cadillac, badly damaged.
