little store standing on the west side of the road about mo feet back from the track so that when at the north boundary of the store a person on the road may see only about 300 feet west on the track The Metropolitan at this point usually travel at a speed of between and 30 miles an hour and as there was a strong breeze blowing off the lake it is thought the victims did not hear the cars crossing

motors tracks on road con cluded that the Metropolitan car came into the view of Die vie Jims just as they passed the northern end of the store They would then be feet from the cross ing and he Metropolitan car feet from Iho crossing It is be lieved that Mr Parsons at first decided lo cross before the radial car and wilh that purpose in creased his speed Then it is believed he became doubtful whether ho could do so in safely and threw on his brakes Tho brakebauds were found be in only fair condition and it is thought that the automobile did slop within the distance ex pected by he driver and that it pulled up just on the track George A Kingston of the Workmens Compensation Board was at his summer residence scene of the accident and was immediately notified He helped to remove the bodies which were under edge of the partlyoverturned motor From the fact that here was no blood found upon the tracks savo at the immediate spot where the bodies were found would appear that the victims were not thrown from automobile until the car had been brought practically to a stop Coroner Dr Wesley of Newmar ket was sent for and he imme diately impanelled a jury which viewed remains and wreckage The inquest was then adjourned to Saturday night at Island Grove Mr Parsons was about years of age and was one of best known residents He was head of the Parsons Fair Hard ware Company in
