DIES AFTER FALL FROM RACING CART
Special to the Times -
MOUNT HOLLY, June 28 - From injuries received when he fell from a racing sulky near his home, Tuesday night, George Brown, of Crosswicks, died yesterday. He was found in an unconscious condition in the road on Wednesday morning and did not regain consciousness. On Tuesday night he went out to exercise his horse, and it is believed that he was thrown from the cart, landing on the base of his brain and paralyzing his entire body. At first, foul play was suspected, but upon investigation County Detective Parker and Deputy Sheriff Fleetwood could find nothing to substantiate this theory. He is survived by a wife and several children.
