M.D. WARNER and N.G. ELDER narrowly escaped a very dangerous wreck and probably serious injury, when they were driving east of town last week. On their way they met one of the "road hogs" that we hear so much about and who ought to be expelled from even being allowed to venture on the roads, who would not proceed to his side of the road when the two cars met. Consequently, Mr. Warner was forced to almost take the ditch, and had he done so, the aforementioned castatrophe, might have happened. At it was, N.G. Elder received a slight cut on his knee which was the only damage done.
