The ladies were returning home from a Club meeting in Amarillo. The car driven by Mrs. J.R. Bartlett was struck from behind by a car driven by L.C. Selby of Hedley. It was reported that the Bartlett car turned over several times after it was struck from behind and that that the impact was terrific. Mrs. W.A. Land and Mrs. R.R. Dawkins were dead when ambulances arrived on the scene. The four other occupants of the car were taken to Northwest Texas Hospital. They were Mrs. J.R. Bartlett, Mrs. Major Hudson, Mrs. R.O. Thomas and Mrs. Buel Sanford. In addition to multiple bruises suffered by each of the ladies, the extent of injuries as reported to the Leader is as follows: Mrs. Bartlett: shoulder injury, released from hospital yesterday; Mrs. Sanford, neck and chest injuries, still in hospital; Mrs. R.O. Thomas, broken left arm, dislocated left shoulder, 2 broken ribs and back injury, still in hospital and allowed no visitors at this time; Mrs. Major Hudson, was released from hospital Friday morning but returned for further check Monday at which time it was found that she suffered two broken ribs and fractured shoulder, released again Tuesday; Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Sanford probably will be in the hospital for several days yet, was the last report.
