Puckeridge
Motor-Cycle Accident
A serious accident occurred on Wednesday morning last to Mr Ted Roberts, of Barkway, as he was cycling towards Ware.
It appears that a motor lorry, belonging to Mr Page, of Braughing, was being turned round, when Roberts' motor-cycle ran into the lorry.
He was rather badly injured, and at the time of going to press we learn that he is still unconscious.
Another Accident
A small "Standard" car proceeding to Ware through Puckeridge on Wednesday evening last, ran into the back of Mr Spencer's lorry (of Puckeridge), badly damaging the car, but fortunately we understand no one was injured.
Accident
On Saturday evening last, in a dense fog, a Ford car collided with a hawker's cart on the London Road.
The horse was badly cut on the off-side fore leg, and the occupants of the car were badly shaken.
An Accident
Whilst acting as a beater at a Shoot at Buckland, on Saturday last, Mr Ernest McNulty was shot in the knee.
The unfortunate man was at once removed to the Royston Cottage Hospital, where he was detained.
On enquiry this (Friday) morning, we learn that he is going on satisfactorily.
