Knocked unconscious by the heavy Impact of a suburban .trolley car which collided with an automobile he was driv ing, Mr. E. P. Brock, a prominent tim ber man of this-' city, who resides at No. 415 Red Cms street, is -in the James Walker Memorial Hospital. The extent df his injuries could not be as certained last night but while serious it was not thought that they were fatal. The unfiartunate accident happened at the intersection of "13th; and Prin- ! cess streets yesterday afternoon at 3:55 i o'clock. A suburban beaeh car of the Tidewater Power Company, bound for Winter Park, was going east on Prin cess street, while Mr. Brock was driv ing his automobile south on Thirteenth. It was raining at the time and Mr. Brock had the curtains up on his ma chine which prevented his seeing the approaching trolley car. Motorman L. Brinsdn, who. was run ning the trolley car, said that he did not see the automobile until ' it was. nearly on the car track and that ho then threw on his emergency brakes and blew his whistle. However, it was then too late to prevent the col lision, the street car striking Mr. Brock?s 'machine squarely near the front end catchlnsr 4t up on the steps, lifting it almost clear of the ground and carrying the automobile for a dis tance of about 30 feet. The tracks be ing wet from the rainmade it impos sible for the street car to be stopped as quickly as would have been thecase ordinarily. While Mr. Brock was not struck di rectly by the street car, the tremendous force of the Impact crused such a shock as to render him unconscious. He suffered no bruises or contusions ex cept one on the head. An ambulance was quickly summon ed and the injured man r,ughed to the hospital for treatment, where Dr. J. B. Cranmer rendered tl.e necessary surgi cal atteitln. Dr. Crannur" stated last night that it was Impossible to deter mine the extent o his injuries until he recovered consciousness. Mr. T. J. Baird, superintendent of transportation for the Tidewater Pow er Company, who was notified by tele phone, -was quickly on the scene fol lowing the accident and did everything possible for 'the relief of the injured man.
