On leaving the road the car dropped abotit four feet onto the culvert and came up on the opposite side of the road and after going for a short distance was brought to a standstill.

When they arrived in Exeter it was found that the spare tire at the rear had been torn off and on going hack it was found that it had been caught in the culvert. iAti investigation by the inspector Tuesday morning revealed the fact that the warning lights had been. lit The Exeter .Chamber of Commerce opened their fall work with a, bau- qUet at the !Central Hotel on .Friday evening of last week.
