Fatal Accident
Mr. Zack Medford was struck by the westbound Interurban limited at 7:15 Sunday night and died on the operating table in Dr. McKissick's office. Mr. Medford's home was in the Van Zandt Addition of Ft. Worth and he with his sons and daughters had been gathering cotton on the farm of Joe Whisrock near Webb. He was coming from Ft. Worth with Messrs. Joe Thompson and Herman Jenkins in a wagon to move his daughters, aged 17 and 15 and his son, aged 13, back to Ft. Worth where he had work. Mr. Medford was 45 years old. Mr. Thompson was only slightly hurt, while Mr. Jenkins suffered a broken limb. They were brought to Dr. McKissick's office by Mr. Hugh Moore's ambulance and received every aid that could be given. Mr. Medford was buried in Greenwood cemetery at Ft. Worth.
The accident occurred at the crossing west of Keystone, the men evidently thinking that they had crossed the interurban crossing when they crossed the T. & P. track. A mule led behind the wagon was killed.
