10-Inch Pine Is
Wreck Casualty
On Midland Road
A pine tree in the Midland
Road parkway—^which has sus
tained a good many losses in ac
cidents over the past few years—
was a casualty when a car head
ing into Southern Pines went out
of control parly Friday morning
Rounding the curve, it hit a
10-inch pine with such force that
it cut it in two, uprooted the
stump and knocked the top part
into another tree 30 feet away
and eight feet up. The car came
to rest on top of the uprooted
stump in a condition described as
“totally demolished.”
Lillie Cameron Finley, 47, of
West Southern Pines, driver of
the car, was cited to court for
careless and reckless driving, ac
cording to the State Highway Pa
trol report. She was said to have
been unhurt. Maggie Gilchrist, 60,
also of West Southern Pines, who
was a passenger in the back seat,
was taken to Moore County hos
