JOHN MORRIS KILLED BY AUTOMOBILE

John Morris, the seven year old son of the late Owen Morris, of 92 Throop avenue, was instantly killed at noon to-day on Suydam street by an automobile, the property of Anthony Granjenarre, of Church street, Milltown. He is a Frenchman, and employed in the Michelin.

Young Morris was going on an errand on Suydam street, and started to cross the street when he noticed the automobile almost upon him. He started back, and the driver of the machine, Mr. Granjenarre, trying to avoid the boy, ran the machine up on the sidewalk. The machine skidded and hit the little fellow, killing him instantly.

Mr. Granjenarre was placed under arrest, and held at the police station. The boy is a twin son, and a stepbrother of Eugene W. Morris, of McMurtry & Morris. The boy’s death is a terrible shock to his mother, as this is the second bereavement in the family in less than a year, the beloved husband and father passing away a short time ago.
