Enoch Logsdon, of Eckhart, Victim of Cruel Driver, Who Sped Away from Scene
Frostburg, Md., Dec. 1 - The automobilist who strikes down a pedestrian and speeds away, leaving his victim unconscious and bleeding along the road, claimed his third victim last night when Enoch Logsdon, 62 years old, a retired miner of Eckhart, succumbed to injuries at his home. Logsdon was found about 8:30 o'clock Thursday night on the National pike, near Kelly's pump, unconscious and bleeding. How he met his injuries are unknown, but indications were that he had been hurled to the roadway by a speeding automobile. Logsdon had left his home at 7:30 o'clock to visit some friends. He was removed to Miners' Hospital and Friday morning apparently had recovered and was removed to his home. Friday night he suffered a relapse and a physician was summoned. He never rallied and death ensued Sunday night. It is stated he apparently suffered internal injuries and a severe blow to his head. He is survived by two sons, William Logsdon, of Detroit, Mich., and Owen Logsdon, of Eckhart, and a daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Walsh. He is also survived by one brother, James Logsdon, and a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Campbell, both of Eckhart. He was well and favorably known and until ten years ago had followed the occupation of a miner. The funeral will probably take place Wednesday, with burial in Eckhart Cemetery. He was a member of the Eckhart Baptist Church. The Cumberland Evening Times, December 1, 1924
