CLYDE EDDY-"THERE HE GOES!"

            One summer while in high school in the early 1960's and working at the same location, a Ford Tractor Dealership south of Newton, as my brother-in-law Clyde Eddy. While riding to work with him one early morning from the Laurel area, we witnessed the following auto mishap.

           On the last 10 mile stretch on highway #14 going south a car tried to pass us. He was unable to do so and pulled in behind us. However, he over-corrected and slid over into the shoulder and then into the ditch. Then, he hit a drive-way into a farmstead and flipped completely over. 

           At that point Clyde was looking in his rear-view mirror and yelled out "There he goes!" I turned around in my seat and watched this car flip completely over going forward. Fortunately, for the driver he only received a cut over his eye from his "lunch bucket" that flew up off his seat.
