Sunday Auto Victims in Beckley Wreck on Beckley Princeton Road
Robert Caffee and Sli Hartigan were seriously injured when their car left the paved Beckley Princeton road near Camp Creek. Speed appears to have caused the crash as a pair of stones in the road led to the vehicle overturning twice. Caffee suffered a possible broken leg and forehead wound, while Hartigan had minor injuries. They were treated at a local hospital. The report also notes ongoing hospital care for a seven year old girl recovering from spinal meningitis and other local society news including editor Hodel’s Switzerland trip and visits by residents to friends in Richmond and Bluefield.
