'Baker, of Exeter, suddenly lost con-
trol of his machine, and together with
-J. Hudson, James Quick, P. Haley,
and le Smallcombe, of the same place,
•other occupants of the car at the tune,
were hurled from the metchine as it
'plunged into the ditch, all sustaining
more or lees serious injuries. Quick
was pinned beneath the car and badly
• crushed. Baker was dashed from his
seat, and, striking on his head, • re-
celved injuries which rendered him un-
-
conscious for an hour and a half. Rud.
;SOD had an arm and a leg broken,
while the other two were badly
shaken up. The injured men are
:still in bad shape here, and but little
cbange is noted in their condition.
`The acciclente it is believed. was caused
