Quintet in Crash Near Hightstown Dodge Serious Hurt

QUINTET IN CRASH NEAR HIGHTSTOWN DODGE SERIOUS HURT A caravan of 25 automobiles followed the buses to Sea Girt. Five Camden motorcycle policemen cleared the way to the county line in Pennsauken township, then returned. Anxiety over the accident to the car of Robert Brice, which overturned two miles from Freehold on the Hightstown-Freehold road, was relieved when word was received from the Freehold hospital that none of the five persons injured, four of them relatives of David Baird, Jr., was critically hurt. Brice has been driving trucks for the fire department for many years. He told Congressman Charles A. Wolverton that it was his first serious accident. Mr. and Mrs. Wolverton showed rare presence of mind when they went to the aid of the victims. They lost no time in removing them to the hospital, four in Mr. Wolverton's car and one in the automobile of Surrogate Donahue, of Monmouth county. Mrs. Wolverton, a graduate of Women's Medical College, Philadelphia, helped Dr. Reynolds, of the Freehold hospital, dress the wounds of the injured. The four Baird relatives, were Mrs. Mary Kane, 42, of 411 Chambers avenue, cuts on the left hand; Robert B. Brice, 211 Elm street, driver of the car, injuries to the legs and body; Mrs. Alice Peak, 804 Cooper street, eleven stitches in arm, and injuries to body and face, and Mrs. Mary Brice, wife of Robert, slight hands and neck cuts. The fifth victim was Mrs. Emma Miles, Forty-fourth street and Westfield avenue, recording clerk in the office of the Camden county clerk, who is believed to have been injured internally. Mrs. Peak and Mrs. Miles were taken last night to the Baird home. Mrs. Miles had improved enough today, however, to go to her own home.
