George B. Brenneman Is
Killed in Auto Accident
Near Carlisle This Morning
Sfecial to the Telegraph
Carlisle, Pa.. March 31.—"Willie driv
ing from Harrisburg to his home here
in an automobile about 1 o'clock this
morning George B. Brenneman, a well
known Carlisle man, was almost In
stantly killed when the machine struck
a telegraph pole. Mr. Brenneman was
accompanied by Joseph Morris and
was turning out of the way of a team
about two miles from town when the
accident happened. Mr. Morris ran
into town for help. Mr. Brenneman
was a son of Levi Brenneman, treas
urer of the Frog and Switch Com
pany. of Carlisle.
Coroner J. H. Deardorff held an In
quest this morning and the verdict
was accidental death.
Joseph E. Morris, who was with Mr. j
Brenneman, is at the head of the
millinery department of the Bowman
& Co.. store here, and they had been |
attending the Fashion Show at the
Majestic Theater at Harrisburg. Mr.
Morris ran to Carlisle after the acci
dent and securing the services of Dr.
R. M. Shepler returned to the scene
of the accident in an automobile. Ar
riving there they found Mr. Brenne
man lying in the ditch at the side of
the road unconscious, but still breath
ing. He was placed in the automobile
and hurried to the Todd Hospital here
but died before reaching that institu
tion. Mr. Morris was cut by glass
from the windshield, but is not !
seriously Injured.
Mr. Morris stated tliat when they i
reached a point near the Kutz farm,
about two miles east of Carlisle, they
saw a wagon on the road, but could
not see which way It was going. It!
was driven by a young man and was
on the way to Carlisle. Mr. Brenne
man tried to pass it and the wheels
ran over the edge of the ditch and
struck the telegraph pole sideways.
It is thought Mr. Brcnncraan's head
came In contact with the pole. The '
automobile, a seven-passenger tour-!
lng car, is completely wrecked.
The driver of the team, when he
saw the accident, whipped up his
horses and drove rapidly away. He is j
unknown.
