Friday 24th September – CYCLE ACCIDENT AT GOYTREY – GRIFFITHSTOWN CLERKS NARRROW ESCAPE

An Alarming accident which might have proved fatal befell Mr Redvers Prosser of Goytrey on Wednesday morning. Mr Prosser who resides at Canal House was proceeding on his push bike to Griffithstown [where is employed in the clerical department at Messrs Baldwin’s works] when he collided with a motor vehicle at the dangerous corner near the Carpenters Arms.

He was conveyed to his home where it was ascertained that he was suffering from severe bruises and shock. Mr Prosser is well known in Goytrey as an active playing member of the local Association Football team.

Reference was made recently in the ‘Free Press’ to this corner as a potential death-trap.
