Saturday he was called to go east of the city, to an accident which -had occurred east of T. H. Dent's home. When he got there he found a car on the north side of the road, facing west. The wind shield of the car w-asbroken, the right front fen- der was broken off. `and the steering gear handle was broken. The weather. he said. . was very foggy, and while there was no trouble in seeing lights of a car. it was hard to see them far awav. The damage - to the car, -he believed. might have beenl caused by a pole. He brought the car i into the garage. towing it in. The Wagon Driver's Evidence .

He ad been in Woodstock on Saturday afternoon, with a load of wood. and left for home about six o clock in ` the afternoon, going out Dundas street ` east, Just about the place of the accident. ` _ he saw ahead of him a light rig. with a 1 milk can on theback. At the same time he noticed the lights of a car in the dis- tance, about three quarters of a mile or so. ( , he believed, away from him. The rig was 5 ;|goinv very slowly, and he thought hell I: would have time to pass it before the car would meet him. . Then. iust as he was } about" to pass the rig. when he was rightl I beside it, the accident happened. his wagon f and the car colliding head on. The end of v the pole and possibly the neck yoke. heir said,istruck the car. He found Mr. Brown- lee lying on the ground beside the wagon. [his head toward the west. Another car !came along almost immediatelyand took Mr. Brownlee to the hospital. and Mr. Zinn accompanied him. When asked if any car had_ passed him. going east. prior to the accident. Mr. Zinn positively denied _ thatvthere had been anv. He said he Hid met several cars, but none had passed `him. Relative to damage sustained to his wagon, Mr. Zinn said there were no marks of damage except a few scratches on the neck yoke. He said he had no mar*in-l gales on the harnesswhich might have prevented the pole from going up when it struck the car. n... .-u'....*r2..-- _-_-..-.. si so mruuls UH: C-til`.
