Bray Baby girl - from Johnson One of the saddest accidents that has ever happened around Johnson transpired Saturday evening when a broken bridle caused a fiery horse to scare and the team ran away with a wagon in which Clint Bray, wife and two small children were returning from Fayetteville. Mrs. Bray and the baby were thrown from the wagon but Clint and the second child stayed with the team which could not be stopped until it collided with another wagon several hundred yards from the starting point. Mrs. Bray was seriously bruised but no limbs were broken and she will probably recover, but the baby girl, almost two years of age, received such serious internal injuries that medical skill availed nothing and death relieved her from the terrible suffering eary Sunday morning. The little girl was laid to rest Monday evening in the Shady Grove cemetery after appropriate funeral services which were conducted at the hoe of the parents by Revs. Webb and Spurgeon. Mr. and Mrs. Bray have resided here several years and have the deep sympathy of their many friends. The Springdale News 1/11/1907 obit book 1907 page 257-258
