C.L. Carpenter Gored by Angry Bull
C. L. Carpenter was seriously injured in an encounter with an angry bull in the pasture at his home just south of town early Saturday morning, and died from the injuries a few hours later.
It is presumed that Mr. Carpenter went to the pasture to drive up the cows and was attacked by the bull. No one being near to assist Mr. Carpenter the animal succeeded in knocking him down and was trampling and tossing him about with all of the fury an enraged animal can show. M. Spann, who lives near by, was milking a cow in his barn when one of his boys called his attention to the animals actions, but they could not see that it was Mr. Carpenter whom the bull was throwing about. Mr. Spann sent the boy to the S. B. Carpenter home with instructions to tell Mr. Carpenter what was going on. Mr. Carpenter was just getting ready to leave the house and hastened to the pasture where he discovered that the body being trampled was that of his father.
Mr. Carpenter was carried to his home but the injuries he received proved so serious that he passed away shortly after nine o'clock that morning.
Mr. Carpenter and his son purchased the old Kemp place, adjoining town, about thirteen years ago. they had during the meantime built up a place from swamp and weeds into a fertile truck and dairy farm which stands as a memorial to their thrift and perseverance.
Funeral services were held at the Church of God, Sunday afternoon. Elder A. N. Dugger and Rev. Ralph M. Fagan presiding. A male quartet furnished several selections. burial was in the Bassett cemetery.
