Paul Reece Recovering from Car Accident in Winston-Salem Hospital, Oct. 6, 1926

Paul Reece Hurt in Wreck Here. . . Car Went Off High Fill Just East of Danbury—Injured Man Will Recover, It Is Stated

Paul Reece of Winston-Salem was injured Sunday night just east of Danbury on the Hartman road when the car went over a high embankment and turned over one or more times. The accident occurred about 1 o’clock at night and the injured man was brought to Danbury for medical attention. He was rendered unconscious and on the advice of physicians was taken to a hospital at Winston-Salem for examination.

A message from the hospital is to the effect that Mr. Reece will recover. His back was injured but not broken, as was thought at first.

In the car with Mr. Reece at the time of the accident was his cousin, Cerva Reece. The latter stated that a defective steering gear caused the car to leave the road.
