to be treated for lacerations and
abrasions, and Edward Fulkner,
also of Carthage Rt. 2, who sus
tained a dislocated hip, was car
ried first to St. Joseph of the
Pines and later transferred to
Duke hospital at Durham. Charges
of careless and reckless driving
were preferred against Barber by
the investigating patrolman.
