Wclbulsii-3 A313 SING. Rust in Wheat -------1:-p At a meeting of the Countv Pv-on-' erty Committee this (Thursday) af- temo,on,.Robert Craig of C-ar:hurs*. was appointed caretaker of the court ghonse at $950 a year. There were =29 applicants, who asked from $500 to $1800. - . nxuAuuu_y- The accident happened near the - Orillia Asylum. With Mr. and Mrs. ` Smith there were riding in the auto- mobile, a Ford -touring, two other - adults and three children. Turning out for another car, the Ford bump- ed over a stone. breaking a shock "absorber, which fell upon the steer- ing rod and twisted it so that the car was suddenly turned towards the ditch. Fortunately, `it was running ' very slowly. and by applying the M brakes the driver thought to prevent it leaving the road. He was a little ` late, however, and the auto just toppled over slowly into the" ditch and turned compltely upside down. Though the ditch was fairly deep. it was -also narrow. thus taking the weirrht off the occupants as they fell. - Mr. Smith had a piece talren out of one hand. Mrs. Smith was severe- lv `bruised and the others rather shaken up. Looking at the For. it was hard to understand how thaw: riding therein got off so `easilv . The body was twisted, ton and winclshinl-J wrecked. one rear wheel smashed and other parts damaged.
