Mrs. Christie Smith is reported in a serious condition this week.
“Grandpa” Mickle is also reported very ill and his recovery is thought to be
impossible.
Dr. J. R. Smith, dentist of this place received the sad news yesterday morning
that his mother had passed away at Modesto and he at once left for Alturas.
Louis Simms was brought over from Alturas last night, suffering with a severe
attack of appendicitis and was found necessary to operate on him at once, which
was done by Dr. M. R. Kennedy and he is getting along as well as could be
expected.
Auto Accident
While returning to Alturas from Cedarville last Monday evening the car occupied
by a Mr. Green and Attorney J. S. Henderson ran off the grade, about a half mile
this side of where the road intersects with the Lakeview road and turned over
three times. Mr. Green’s thigh was broken and chest badly bruised and Mr.
Henderson sustained a broken leg and the car was badly wrecked. Mr. Green is
said to be very seriously injured. He was driving and it is thought that in
coming down the grade the sun was directly in front of him, which evidently
blinded him for a moment when the accident occurred. The injured men were taken
to Alturas and everything possible was done for them.
