Zack of the front seat.
She did not complain at the time,
..and the other occupants of 'the car
%escaped with a few minor bruises. The
%steering wheel of the car was broken
•and the axle bent, but they were able
tto continue the journey with their own
-car. Mrs. Campbell did not convi'ain
, all the way home, except•to ment' on
that her throat was sore. She lapsed
into unconsciousness on her arr'val
Thome and passed away\ almost im-
trneclia.tely.

MISSED DEATH BY INCHES
Borden Jenkins, son of Mrs. Ed.
Jenkins, of Wingham, missed death
by inches on Monday, when his mot-
or car was struck' by the morning
C. P. R. train at the B. Line crossing,
as it was backing in to Wingham.
Jenkins came out of the affair with
face rather badly cut, and shaken up,
while the car was an absolute wreck,
about the worst any person ever saw.
Just how the accident occurred is hard
to understand as there is a clear view
of the track for a considerable dis-
tance at this point, from the direction
the car was going. Fortunately tls.
train was proceeding at a very mod-
erate speed and caught the car square
broadside, shoving it along the track
and crumpling it to, a broken shatter-
ed mess against the cattle guard fence.
Trainmen immediately brought • the
train to a stop, and after soine diffi-
culty removed the young man from
the mess, feeling mighty relieved and
surprised that he was not crushed to
death.
