> Daniel Kelly Loses His Life
> He was Deaf and Did Not Hear the Limestone Cars Coming on Him
> Daniel Kelly, an aged citizen of near Hillsville, was instantly killed at
> the Johnston & Marquis limestone quarry on Thursday. Mr. Kelly is 73
> years of age, and had been from the west but a short time. He was walking
> on the limestone track, and as he is very deaf, could not hear an
> appproaching car. It had been cut loose and was coming down the track.
> He must have felt the jar of the track as the car approached him, for just
> as it was upon him he turned his head, but too late to get out of the way.
> He was knocked down, and when assistance came he was just breathing his
> last. Both legs were broken and his ribs were crushed into his heart. He
> has several relatives near Hillsville and is highly spoken of.
