FLOWERS FATALLY INJURED IN WRECK JAN. 29 NEAR FORT

Anniston, Ala., Jan. 31

W.H. Flowers Jr., a prominent Borden Springs lumberman who was injured about 
the head in a collision on Pelham Road near Fort McClellan on Wednesday 
afternoon, died Thursday night about 10:30 o'clock at Garner Hospital where 
he was taken for treatment immediately after the accident. Sheriff P.W. 
Cotton today said he had released Mell Wyatt, driver of one of the vehicles 
in the accident and that he would not prefer charges against him.

The sheriff said he investigated the case further Thursday following the 
preliminary investigation made immediately after the collision. The sheriff 
and Coroner T. Flint Gray were at the scene of the accident for about two 
hours immediately after it occurred. Sheriff Cotton says he believes that 
the accident was unavoidable because of an ice and snow covered road. The 
collision occurred on a curve just north of the Fort McClellan entrance.

Mr. Flowers was alone in his automobile, and in a produce truck with Mr. 
Wyatt was a negro who received minor cuts and bruises. Wyatt was uninjured.

Funeral services for Mr. Flowers who was 38 years of age, will be conducted 
in Atlanta. The body was sent to Atlanta by Usrey today. Surviving are his 
wife and a daughter Mildred of CEDARTOWN; his father, W.H. Flowers and a 
sister Mrs. J.B. Fitts of Atlanta.
