43 ARE INJURED WHEN •
CRACK FLYER WRECKS
AT ENFIELD YESTERDAY
Five Pullman Cara On Number 84 Thrown Into
Swamp When Part of Train
Is Derailed
TWO WOMEN SERIOUSLY HURT
Ambulances, Doctors, Sightseers From Here and
Other Sections of State Rush to
Scene of Accident
(Between forty and fifty persons
^ere injured, several seriously and at
least two fatally, when passenger
frain Number 84, crack flyer of the
Atlantic Coast Line, northbound from
Florida to New York, hit a bad rail
and whipped five steel Pullman cars
into the swamp, one mile north of En
field Wednesday morning.
Mrs. A. T. Averill, Tampa, Fla. suf
A?red a severe fracture of the skull
and may not live. Miss My*tie Su,'*v-r
wood, Rrundidg.e Ala. received terri
ble ‘‘tits about the face and head. One
Hundred stitches were necessary and
if she lives, doctors say she will be
disfigured for life.
The worst train wreck ever to occur
in this county and one of the worst in
the history of the Atlantic (’oast L.ine
took no toll of human life, because of
one thing: steel coaches.
* The five rear pullman cars were
Whipped across the track and “crack
ed the whip,” spilling their human
targo into tj’tf wet and swampy diich
several feet below the track level.
*'• The force was great enough to snap
the hir trucks from the bot
tom ears. The coaches were
sla their sides with terrific
st* «£ the only damage to the
b« .es was in broken glass.
Many of the injuries were from this
source. Flying glass cut nearly every
(ccupant of the five cars. Several
persons suffered broken limbs and 2
women were sa badly crushed that
little hope is held for them.
The engine and seven coaches in
front passed over the danger point
safely, altho one baggage man says
he felt his car, near the front sway
as it crossed the bad rail. The train
was traveling at a fast rate of speed,
having slowed up only a lil*.l<» bit for
infield where it did not stop.
The wreck occured at a sharp curve
nd railroad officials lay the blame
. 9o the expansion of a rail due to the
excessive beat. The exact cause may
never be known as the entire expanse
of rail for several hundred feet was
tom from-the ties and the ties them
selves were crushed beyond recogni
tion.
Further up the track for 100 yards
the ties carry a deep bitten trail to
•show where the last car staying on
the tracks had been pulled off bv the
five unlucky coaches. The rear truck
only left the rails, the balance of the
wheels holding fast.
This rear truck of the last car. a
diner, was later said to have been the
cause of -the wreck. It was shown
• that it dropped off the tracks, sling
the cars to the rear off at the curve.
The car was supposed to have been
examined at Rocky Mount and an of
fidal investigation has been started
there to ascertain the fault.
That the engineer must nave im
the track give is evidenced by the
tight grip on the wheels of the over
turned eats by the emergency brakes.
They were as white as if turned on
an emery wheel.
fries and shrieks of the wounded
r filled the air as the first rescuers
reached the pitiful scene. Here and
there lav a quiet body, apparently
* lifeless. ' Pleas for help came from
within the cars where passengers lay
pinioned and helpless. Immediate
rescue work was accomplished by the
train crew and passengers on that
art „f the train saved.
TWO negro porters distinguished
themselves by their heroic work in
. crawling-into the derailed cars and
rescuing many of the injured oassen
gprs They were W. \\ yatt and H.
' Friiurrv up calls were sent to Roa
noke Rapids, Rosemary, Weldon,
Rockv Mount and other points for
rotors, nurses, ambulances, medical
"“plies. Right of way was given
Imbalances, cars with doctors and
■ and soon most of the injured
lire being given the proper atten
ti0lc more seriously injured were
„]hed into Rocky Mount to Urn Hos
Others were taken into homes
r Pnfield, While some twenty rested
iider the shade of an improvised
££on the side of the wreck, a tent
held by sightseers, while others fan
ned the wounded. It was terribly hot
out there on those open tracks.
The news of the wreck spread thru
out this and adjoining counties and by
eleven o’clock there were 500 per
sons at the scene. At noon, the num
ber had increased to at least 1,000.
They came in rushing motors from
Littleton, Roanoke Rapids, Rosemary,
Weldon, Halifax, Rocky Mount, Wil
son, Scotland Neck, and all way sta
tions.
orim reports spread over the c un
try. 18 persons were taken to Rocky
Mount in ambulances and the report
went out that 18 were dead.
Even as the doctors and nurses ap
plied their splints and bandages, the
railroad company was making ; '.'m
to open up traffic. Trains from
north and south puffed aimlessly
away, awaiting the high ball. The
falling wreck had broken wire con
nections. The first step was to rig
up new wires for carrying the never
ending stream of messages so vital
to railroad life. A crew of negroes
began hacking away at the ruined ties
and rails. Late Wednesday night, new
track had been laid and trains were
again speeding thru the night.
Number 84, due in Richmond at
12:30 p. m. arrived there at 5 o’clock.
It was a special train made up at
Weldon to carry on. Traffic was
paralyzed for several hours, but was
resumed on schedule today.
The wrecked train was one of the
fastest on the line. It made only
three stops between Ro^ky Mount
and Richmond, at Weldon, Emporia
and Petersburg. Yesterday, it also
stopped at Enfield.

Arrests Daughtry
On Liquor Warrant
Quite a bit of excitement was caus
ed in the Sanitary Barber Shop Mon
day when officer C. R. Green arrest
ed John Daughtry. It seems the of
ficers had a warrant for Daughtry on
a liquor eharge and he had been ab
sent from ths community for some
time.
When officer Green walked into the
barber shop, Daughtry was sitting in
a barber chair, after having gotten
some work. Green walked up to him
and told him he had a warrant for his
arrest. Daughtry told him to read it.
The officer did so and told Daughtry
to come on.
The latter is said to have jumped
from the chair and said, “Well, get
your gun,” or words to that effect.
When he started for Green, the of
ficer hit him with a blackjack, knock
ing him out. Four stitches were ne
cessary at the hospital. After the
medical treatment. Green took nirn to
jail here. He will probably be taken
to Halifax jail today.

this charge, although Tucker was
sentenced to 30 days on the county
roads for vagrancy.

the malicious cutting and woun ling
of a negro boy at a swimming hide in
Chocoyotte Creek. Charles Parker,

demand. The negro was pretty had- l
ty cut up, it is said. I
tvu-n oi the white boys pleaded in
nocence and says if there was any
cutting done, it was done by one of
the others. They will be tried this
Friday before Mayor Long.
Lee Palmer, chicken thief extraor
dinary. and his running mate, James
Johnson, were bound over to the Hali

sold them to Taylor and Collier where
Mr. Pappendick works. When the
owner recognized and proved owner

with the officers, lav in wait for Lee
and caught hipi when he returned

gin Islands, took part in this cam
paign. President Hoover, who has
headed the Better Homes organization
from its inception, continues his keen
interest in this educational program
and is now serving as its honorary
president.
Secretary Wilbur now heads Better
Homes in America, the educational
organiztaion which annually sponsors
an intensive program having for its

MILLION IN
County Tax Collections Gross
652 Thousands: Unnaid Tax
es Are 66 Thousands
Ninety per cent of the tax levy in
Halifax countv has been collected as
j revealed in a report to the boar! rf
county commissioners. J. C. Branch
of Enfield led the collectors by bring
ing to county coffers 99 per cent of
^he $77,442 with which he was charg
ed. The public service corporations,
represented by railroads, trlm'honos
and similar taxes, paid $75,602.64 to
the count, according to Auditor
Hawkins.
Thetotal levy for the county was
$651,900.09 and of this amount $5s5.
041.29 had been paid in by June 20th.
The unpaid balance is $66.924.SO. Col
lections have been in charge of H. I.. ,

I Both the roan and school budgets
for the coining year were submitted to
the county’s governing body and were
jin the main approved. Detailed study
I of the proposed outlay for the com
ing year will engage attention before
the budgets are finally written into
the record.
j The commissioners, very favorably
impressed with the forest fire protec
tion which Halifax county is taking
in conjunction with about 45 counties
of the state, renewed its contract The
cost is $000.
i | Road officials, headed by Chairman
J. T. Chase, reported everything as
moving smoothly in their field of en
deavor. Other members of the board
are P. V. Randolph, F. M. Taylor, W.
L. Bailey, and J. W. Harvey.
Mrs. J. W. Ross has returned from
a visit to relatives in Ohio.
Excellent reports on the first half
year’s business for 1929 by the Sim
mons Company, indicated that this
company, the worlds* largest manu
facturers of beds, mattresses and
springs, operating a Trig* plant in
Richmond, will come to the close of
1929 with a record business year,
says a Richmond paper. The compa
ny’s directors meet today in Chica
go, and it is likely that plans for ex
pansion will be made at this session.
In 1928 Simmons Co., net records
with sales of $36,599,088 and net
profit of $4,275,370, equal to $3.88 a
share on 1,100 shares. The company
placed itself in liquid condition and in
excellent position for expansion dur
ing 1929. Monthly sales so far this
year have increased steadily over last
year. Simmons June sales to the
trade, including subsidaries 100 per
cent owned, totaled $4,005,915, com
pared with $3,090,114 in June, 1928,
an increase of 31.9 per cent. This
brought six month’s sales this year to
$23,011,035 against $21,008,629 a year
ago, an increase of 35.3 per cent.
Simmons Company reports its earn
ings only semi-annually. In the first
half of 1928, profit before federal tax
i's amounted to $2,501,438. This figure
was substantially bettered iu the six
months just ended, probably by $1,
000,000. As the last half of the year
is normally the larger for Simmons,
it would not be surprising to see 1929
sales reaching $50,000,000 or more
and net profit equaling between $7
and $8 a share.
> r or several momns oimraons nas
been experimenting in the plastic
field with “molded” products as an
eventual aim. While th:s develop
ment is not yet assured, experiments
have gone far enough to indicate a
commercial success. By this process,
it is planned to turn furniture out in
molds, aided by certain chemical re
actions from gases and supplemented
by pressure. The object of the ma
nagement is to produce a new type of
furniture in colors on a basis of mass
output at low prices. This would
greatly expand Simmons’ field tnd
sales possibilities, bringing the com
pany eventually into the general fur
niture manufacturing field rather
than bedroom equipment mainly.
