Jacobs, Injured Last Saturday, Passed Away Yesterday. B.E. Jacobs, who was struck by an automobile near the cypress mills a week ago, an account of which was published in The News at the time, passed away at his home yesterday morning shortly before 1 o’clock at his pretty country home on the Cypress Mills road, as a result of the injuries he received in the accident. Mrs. Jacobs, who also suffered a broken arm and other injuries in the accident, is improving. The deceased was 62 years of age, therefore the injuries he received went hard with him, although he had the best medical attention, it was to no avail. The funeral was held at the family residence yesterday afternoon, the funeral being conducted by Rev. James E. Smith, of the Advent church, the remains being forwarded later to Waynesville, where the funeral will occur today. J.L. Carter, the colored chauffeur who was driving the machine which struck the buggy, has been arrested and placed in jail. He claims that he was in now way responsible for the accident, and claims that there are eye witnesses who will bear him out in the statement.
