Yes. In 1937 between Memphis and Clarksdale. Richard Morgan was driving late at night on a dark narrow highway and hit the back of a truck on Bessie's side of the car. She most likely died of massive internal injuries and was already in shock by the time help got there. It severed her arm off. There is a complete interview by Dr. Smith who was traveling to go fishing when he came up on the wreck. He makes a full spectrum documentary of the events that night.
