A buggy accident was in this news item from the past

Hunter Durham of Columbia shared this news item from the past headlined, "An Accident."
"One afternoon, last week, while Mr. F.H. Durham and his little son Alden, and Mr. Durham's mother, Mrs. M.E. Durham, we're en route to Greensburg, to be present at the marriage of Mrs. Durham's granddaughter, they met with an accident while crossing Skinhouse Branch, 8 miles from Colombia. The buggy upset and all three were dumped into the stream. Mrs. Durham got considerably hurt, but there will be no serious results."
Young Alden was the late Oma Alden (O.A./Cotton) Durham, father of Henry Hunter Durham, Attorney At Law, Public Square, Columbia, KY. This item had been copied from the paper by Mary Elizabeth Feather Durham about the accident in route to Vera Durham's wedding. Hunter said it was the only time he could remember having seen his Dad's first name, Oma, written out.
