"Joe Goode and Wife Victims When Car Leaves Highway.
"Mr. and Mrs. Joe D. Goode lost their lives Sunday just before night, on the Dixie Highway, about 8 miles this side of Bowling Green, near the home of Mr. Frank Amos.
"Mr. and Mrs. Goode and Mr. R. E. Wilkinson of near this place were on their way to Bowling Green, in Wilkinson's new Ford car. The road was nice and at the time Mr. Goode was doing the driving, and making fast time. His wife asked him to slow up, as he was going too fast. When Mr. Goode put his foot on the four wheel brake, the car turned over two or three times, and landed in the ditch beside the road.
"Both Mr. and Mrs. Goode were killed instantly, both having fracture[d] skulls. When help arrived their dead bodies were taken from under the car. Mr. Wilkinson was slightly injured.
"The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Goode were taken to Bowling Green where they were prepared for burial and then brought to this place, and Tuesday taken to Eighty-Eight, where they were interred in a single grave, after funeral services conducted by Rev. Goodson, pastor of the Methodist Church at this place.
"Mr. Goode was a Glasgow boy, where he was born and has lived nearly all his life. He and his wife were working in Detroit for a time, but came home on account of the illness of relatives.
"Mr. Goode is survived by his mother, Mrs. Nannie Goode, who is desperately ill with typhoid, and was not informed of the accident. He also leaves five brothers and four sisters: Messrs. Chas Henry, J. R., A. F. Clayton and Paul Goode. Mrs. Lora Broady, Mrs. Annie B. Davidson, Mrs. Reble Landrum and Miss Mayple Goode, all of ths county.
"Mrs. Goode is survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Carver, formerly of Austin, later of this place, but now of Bowling Green. She also leaves some brothers and sisters."
