Sumter Daily Item. Tuesday morning at about 8 o'clock little Walter Hdpkins. son of Mr. and s[rs. T. F. Hopkins of this city, was in stantly killed when the bakery truck in which he and his father were riding ov erturned ou the Mayesville road throe : miles from Sumter. Mr. Hopkins is ; the proprietor of the Southern Baking Company of this city aud was. returning from a run to Mayesville. There is a curve several hundred yards- up the road from the scene of the accident, and Mr. Hopkins had successfully made this curve aud straightened out again before the truck turned turtle. From all that can be gathered from the tracks it sterns that he went too far lowatds the right hand side of the road coming towards Sumter aud firßt went off the asphalt. They he must hasve turned too quickly towards the other side and was unable to straighten Cut. At this point the truck skidded acro-s the road and into the ditch, turning completely ever and coining to r&st facing back towards Mayesville. Mr. Hopkins, by some miracle escaped injury, but his little nine-year-old sen was forced into the mud and - his neck broken and skull crushed. He was dead when removed from the truck which had to be pried from his body with heavy boards. Mr. Hopkins extriedted himself from the wreckage within a few minutes after the accident occurred, and summoned aid. An ambulance was sent for and arrived in a very short time. An examination of the little boy's body was made but it was found useless to atempt to restore life, as death evidently happened in stantly. Though unhurt by the accident Mr. Hopkins was alnmst crazed with grief, and at this writing is confined to his bed and under the care of his doctor. Walter Hopkins was a very bright and precious child and endeared himself to every one with whom he came in con tact. His loss will be keenly felt by every one who knew him and particular ly by bis family. When asked for definite information about the little boy's age Superintendent Edmunds gave ou tin- following: Walter Hopkins, a son of Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Hopkins, was born on the 15th of November. 1915. He would, therefore, have been nine years of age on bis next birthday. Walter was a member of last year's second grade. MP-?'MartinV section and was pronounced to the third grade, with excellent in everything for the whole year's work—studies and deportment. "Well done, thou good and faithful serv ant.” The funeral wMI be held tomorrow afternoon at live o’clock from Mr. Hop : kins' residence on East Calhoun Street.
