An Anadarko Funeral Home ambulance was called and the injured man was rushed to the hospital. According to the information obtainable, Mr. Abbott was enroute on foot to town from his farm home 3 ½ miles northeast of Gracemont and when near the section house in the north part of town, he endeavored to go around a wagon and team. When near the center of the road a car approached from an opposite direction. The driver of the auto, seeing the elderly man, sounded his horn and swerved in trying to pass.

The handle of the car door struck him in the back of the head with such force that his skull was fractured and the handle was torn from the door. F.W. Barbee of Kansas City, Mo., and J.T. Maddox of Oklahoma City were the occupants of the car. Eye witnesses report the accident unavoidable.
