“FATAL COLLISION AT TAPPAHANNOCK
“Edward Baughan Killed as Motorcycle And Auto Crash Near Town
“Tappahannock, Feb. 8.—Edward Baughan, 21, only son of Mr. and Mrs. George Baughan, of Tappahannock, was killed last night when the motorcycle he was riding was in collision with an automobile on the main highway, just east of Tappahannock.
“Larrymore Gresham, colored, of Bowler’s Wharf, has been arrested and held under $1,000 bond awaiting a hearing on a charge of being the driver of the car which was in collision with the motorcycle ridden by Young Baughan. No date for the hearing has been set and officers refused to discuss what evidence they had that Brown was the driver of the car.
“The youth is survived by his parents and several sisters.” [Northern Neck News, 12 February 1932, page 1, column 4.]
