MERRITT HURT IN ACCIDENT.
State School Commissioner Narrowly
Escapes Death.
Atlanta, Sept. 19.—Commissioner W.
B. Merritt narrowly escaped serious
injury and probably death yesterJay
mcrning in a,runaway accident at Val
dosta, where the popular ccniinlssion-
er had gone lo spend a fov; days at
his old home. That he su.stained
nothing but a bad bruise on the body
and a painful scratch of the arm is
considered miraculous by eyewitnesses
of the accident. C-ommlssioner ^M^er-
ritt returned to Atlanta last ni:;ht and
is now at his home in tliis city.
Professor Tvlerritt stated in reply to
Questions regarding the accident that
he was out driving yesterday morning
at his old heme, was on his way to
Pine Park. Ills horse, which wa^s
hitchei to a light buggy. l)ecame fright
ened at a rapidly passing trolley caf
and dashed on the track immediately
in front of the car. which v/as then
goin^r down g’rade. The mniornian w2s
l',ov<e”lo=s to stop the car l.e:ore strik
ing the buggy. The front wheels
wei’e chatteled by the force of the
blow, Mr. Mcnaitt receiving the inju
ries bt.ited above. The horse was
unhurt.
Profesjcr Merritt spoke lightly d
the accident aau; ap;.arently carried
very few marks of his fall, but his
friends will bo very grateful to knov,'
that tlie result w-as no worse than i"
wa.s.
