which was but a few feet, cost to
dollars less at the local yards, than
here he had purchased it, and a much
lesser grade of lumber at that. This

Franklin, Sept. 23. Clifford Gar
rett, sheriff of Franklin county for
many years, was killed here Sunday
in the 100-mile stock car race.
Five thousand spectators looked on
and other contestants, thinking him
only slightly hurt, continued the
race.
The heroism of A. A. Black of
Hastings, following Garrett, failed to
save his life. Black ran his Ford
into the bank to keep from hitting
Garrett's body.
Thrown From Car.
Though thrown several yards from
his machine. Black scrambled up
and risked his life twice to get the
body out of the way of other cars.
But a few minutes later, while
the ambulance rushed to the fair
grounds exit, Garrett expired.
His fearlessness in wars on boot
leggers and other law violators had
made him known throughout south
western Nebraska.
Neck Broken.
His brother, Tom, was killed un
der almost identical circumstances in
South Dakota four years ago.
Garrett was on the second lap of
the 100-mile race and was supposed
to have a good chance to win. He
was driving a stripped Studebaker
that had already taken one contest
and participated in another.
He glanced behind to watch Black
and as he did so the big car crashed
into the bank. He was crushed to the
ground as it toppled. His neck was
broken and his lung punctured by
fractured ribs.
Preparing for a similar race with
Garrett several months ago. Police
Chief John Bramble of Hastings was
involved in a highway accident that
