Last Wednesday morning August 02, 1927, a bad car accident happened at Choudrant, Lincoln 
parish when J.A. Ward Jr. formerly of this parish but lately of Texas, was fatally hurt 
also several others in the same car were painfully injured. Ward, his wife and several 
others were hastening to the bedside of his wife’s sister who was very ill there. At the 
point of the accident a truck was on the right side of the road and when Mr. Ward attempted 
to swing around it to the left his car collided with another car going west and the terrible 
accident occurred. The driver of this car also sub stained a broken limb and other bruises. 
Mr. Ward was rushed to a sanitarium in Monroe, where he died son afterward. He was a son of 
the late James A. Ward of this parish. He is survived by his widow, mother and several 
brothers and sisters. His remains were interred in the Taylor cemetery Thursday.
