Alcock and Aikins would be difficult of realization, there ap- pears,to be possibilities of success in Manufacture anufacture of clothing; etc., in Seaforth, and we beg to submit the proposition with the relative corres- pondence to tate town council for their careful consideration, but sug- gest that the two principals above mentioned should definitely state the respective amounts whichthey are ore,iared to invest." • This resolution, with X11 corres- pondence that had passed between Measrs. Alcock and Aikins, and the secretary of the Board. of Trade, in- cluding their proposals, and the fol - Owing wing letter_actdressed to the coup= ecil was handed to the Mayor on Sat- urday evening. "Mayor and Council, "Town of Seaforth. "Gentlemen: "At a meeting of the Seaforth Board of Trade held on March 2nd, 1923, for the consideration of the pro- position submitted by Messrs. Alcock and Aikins regarding the manufacture of clothing was thoroughly discussed from its various viewpoints of sitc- cessful operation and the attached resolution was unanimously adopted. Trusting this will meet with your esteemed approval "Yours respectfully,' "F. 0, NEELIN, "Secretary of Board of Trade," After giving this careful considera- tion the Mayor interviewed- the members of the council and with their approval sent the following letter to Mr. Alcock. "Mr. Alcock, "237 Confederation Life Bldg., "Toronto. ' "Dear Sir: "In ' regard to our conversation over the phone on Friday evening, I might just, say that the resolution passed by the Board of Trade at their meeting on Friday, March 2nd, with your proposals, and -all the cor- respondence that passed between you and the secretary of the Board of Trade was handed to me Saturday evening. t I am forwarding you a copy of the .secretary's letter to the council and also a copy of the resolution they passed. After interviewing the members of the council, we were unanimously of the opinion that as this proposition was introduced by the Board of Trade, and that haying gone over, and fully considered all the informa- tion at hand regarding your propos- ela they failed absolutely to give the proposition their- recommendation or approval in their resolution to the council; and as the Board of Trade is composed of some of our most prominent business men; we 'fedi that it would be useless for the cQun- 'cil to give your proposals further consideration. "We' regret that your proposition was one which aonarentlythe Board of Trade was unable to recommend in their resolution to the cnnnc': as we would have been more than pleas- ed to see a successful business estab- lished in our vacant factory.

N. Lewis, is- sued Iris judgment, of $101 and cots for the plaMtif1,l in the Division Court case tried before him last De- cember, in which George Bell, of Seaforth, sought. damages of $120 from Thomas R. Wait's, of Goderich, the action arising from a motor ac- cident whiclaoccurred on the Bayfield road on the evening of July 14th, 1922, met as 'ud n (,quotations front the7 g , laancled down by Judge Lewis, follow- ing asomewhat lengthy introductory summarization of Oe evidence arc as follows: "The contention' of the defendant, T. R. Wallis, is that the collision was r.t.tsed by the plaintiff's car stopping suddenly without notice, The evdence is contradictory as to the plaintiff's car being absolutely• stopped. "The contention of the plaintiff, G. Bell, is that his car was driven care- fully in every respect and that he did everything required of him for safety and that defendant's car was intend- ing to pass his but seeing the third car, (driving north, other two cars going south) so close, changed his urnd when he was foo close to plain- tiff's car to prevent a collision. This defendant's driver denies, "A ear following has the right to pass the car travelling .in front, but must first give notice and enable the other car to pull to the right. Where a car attempts to pass another car it must make sure there is ample room, and it is responsible if there is not. A car following another car should follow at such a speed that it can be stopped at any time ifthe car in front stops, or slowi down f the other slows down. There ire many reasons why a car may be stopped unavoid- ably, and the car following must be far enough behind or going so slow- ly as to be under control. "There is no right of. way in the presence of danger." "The evidence as above summariz- ed clearly points to the cause of this accident,. The defendant was driving too close to the plaintiff. It was for- tunate that the injuries were no worse. The occupants of both cars, amengst whom were a number of ladies, might have been seriously or fatally injured and the consequences very grave. "I again can't tulip stating here that this should be warning to all car drivers. You dont own the roads. You have, like other!, a right to use the roads, but in doing so you should take care,in fact, itis your duty to drive so carefully that you can so control your car that it will d9 no damage to. others. �p- "I have no alternative but to find, for the plaintiff, ,George Bell, da- mages of $101 with costs. Defendant's counter claim is dismissed." The judgement in the case, in which J. M. Best, of Seaforth, was counsel for the plaintiff, and. R. C. Hays, Jr., Goderich, counsel fore defendant, is likely to be appealed.
