I ran to get the car, while others tended to him. Speed Thompson and Emmett Scott got Carswell and his wife, Sue, situated in the hospital. But Sue was so worried about their car being left at church; she knew they would need their car at home, when Carswell was able to leave the hospital. I asked Sue to describe their car to me. She did and gave me the keys. Once Speed and Emmett arrived to Pittman Park, they found the car and drove it to the Willams’s home. Church was still in session after they arrived back to Pittman Park from delivering the car. The hospital decided not to keep Carswell and sent him home to rest.
Church was over, and this is when the story gets humorous. Speed Thompson called me and said the police are looking for us. Apparently we stole an automobile. The keys that Sue Williams gave Emmett, Speed, and me as well as the description she told us, matched the car of a choir member. The choir member remembered where she parked and her car was not in its location. So she called the police to report a stolen car.
I had to call the police department and tell them we knew where the car was and explain the whole story. Needless to say that was one eventful Sunday at Pittman Park.
