RANDOLPH - ‘’Doc” Brown in Omaha Hospital As Result of Crash Last Saturday R. L. “Doc” Brown, for many years a resident of Randolph, was seriously injured last Saturday forenoon in an auto accident 17 miles northwest of Bloomfield.
Mr. Brown was driving his car on a high grade, the edge of which was soft, and gave way when his machine came too near the edge of the road.
The car went down the decline, turned over three times, and Mr. Brown, who was alone, sustained a double fracture of the bones of his right leg.
A couple of farmer lads found the injured man, who was freed from the wreckage, took him to Bloomfield, notified his son Milo Brown of Randolph, and then brought the injured man to this city. An examination revealed that one fracture was below the knee and one above. Hospital care was needed in this case, and Mr. Brown was taken to Omaha Saturday in the Brenner ambulance.
He is now in the Lord Lister hospital where his leg was set Sunday.

WYNOT - A Wynot man was relieved of his billfold by gypsy women who were “trying to make an honest living.”
The hypnotism in the dark gypsy eyes must have been potent, for the smooth worker succeeded, we are told in extracting the Wynot man’s purse from an inside pocket, removing $80 and returning the empty purse.
Sheriff Bill Bisenius went to Yankton Monday on the trail, found the gypsy band who denied the theft, but Bill got the stolen $80.
