THREE WRECKS IN A DAY

Three rear end collisions occurred on the Scioto Division Monday, but strange to say no one was injured, although the damage done will run up into thousands of dollars. At Naugatuck seven cars were demolished. At Haverhill four empties were reduced to kindling wood and at Rex three cars were torn to pieces.

[I believe Rex may have been between Kenova and Ironton. Comments anyone?]
