WEEKS KILLED IN CAR WRECK
Moultrie Man Dies In Schley Accident
Richard Weeks, 29, of Moultrie, was instantly killed last Saturday morning 
about 1:30 o'clock when the car which he was driving overturned on the old 
Ellaville-Buena Vista highway.  The accident occurred near the home of Misses 
Jennie and Georgia Bivens.

State patrolmen who investigated the accident said Weeks' loss of control of 
the car apparently was the only cause.

Raymond Benford of Americus, Weeks' companion, suffered only minor injuries.

Weeks had been employed on a building project at Georgia Southwestern college 
in Americus for the past several months.  Funeral services and burial were at 
Moultrie Sunday.  Survivors include his parents and a sister, all of Moultrie.

The accident marks Schley county's first traffic fatality of the year.
