Greensboro Negro Hurt Trying to Board Freight Train
Benjamin Belton of Greensboro barely escaped death when he attempted to swing onto a fast northbound freight car near the Southern railroad station. He fell under the wheels, breaking his left leg above the knee, and was rescued by an eyewitness drayman. Belton, who had come to High Point seeking work, later explained he did not know why he tried to catch the moving train. The incident occurred as High Point supported flood relief efforts with a $100 donation and total contributions reaching over $3,070.13 to aid Mississippi flood victims. The 17th annual meet of the Patriotic Sons of America concluded with H. H. Koontz reelected president and officers named for the coming year.
