Miss -Stockdale states she was driving along about twen- ty-ve miles an hour, when in front of the forestry station she turned out to pass a standing truck. In doing so she lost control of her car in loose gravel. The auto turned half-way round and descended a four-foot ditch at right angles with the road, turn- ling over. ---c - - v.- The right door must either have been partly open or Miss Guy must have attempted to get out when the car started to swerve. for she was pinned between the partly-opened door and the ditch. There were three men in the truck which they had just passed and the accident took place right in front of them. In less than a minute they had the young women extri- cated and rushed them to the hos- pital here, where Miss Guy died` ten minutes after entering. She had sustained severe internal in- juries and the doctors believe her back was broken. The men in the forestry truck state Miss Stockdale was travel- ling _30-35 miles an hour when she passed them. -She had just struck- the freshly-gravelled road, which,` although spread three weeks ago.

Odds and Ends The report of the committee of the whole provided for the grad- ing and improving of Toronto Street from Ross to Wellington. A petition from ratepayers was read lasking that this work be done.

This is a pro- vincial highway and at present in deplorable condition. An estimate of $12.000 for a 20-foot perman- ent road has been; received, but does not include storm sewers or curb. The feeling of Council was that the work, when done. should be thoroughly done and that the ultimate cost. 50 per cent. of which would be paid by the pro- vince. would bemuch more than $12,000, also that 20 feet was not wide enough. Estimates on the complete job are to be secured and a special meeting of Council may be called. `Il _---.. .]l ...f|.--!.. -....__-.`l. _`l-E.... 13 !:u4 tute.
