Two Franklin, N.C., women died in a two-vehicle wreck east of Clayton Wednesday afternoon.

The wreck happened about 3:15 p.m.on Ga. 2 east of Mcworter Lane in Rabun County, according to the Georgia State Patrol.

A 2007 Mercedes Benz E350 driven by Judith Coolidge Hughes, 81, was traveling west on Ga. 2 when the driver failed to maintain the vehicle’s lane of travel and collided with the front of a 2007 Ford Ranger pickup truck driven by Dennis Mark Dalrymple, 71, of Clayton.

Hughes and her passenger, 91-year-old Patricia Childers Safko, died at the scene.

Dalrymple suffered suspected serious injuries and was flown to Greenville Memorial Hospital in South Carolina.
