We were greatly shocked on the evening of February 12 to learn by a telephone message that the Rev. T. C. Newman, pastor at Bowen's Chapel, in Clarksville Presbytery, had met death in an accident at Waverly, Tenn., that afternoon. Brother Newman and his wife and daughter were in an automobile, and in attempting to cross the railroad at Waverly were struck by a fast freight train. Their care was demolished, and Brother Newman lived less than an hour. Mrs. Newman and the daughter were hurt, but no fatally.
