Both finally decided on safety first and headed for the ditch, but one changing itsmind turned back onto the road. When ap- proaching the pigs, Mr. Koch had slowed down his car, but on the sud- den turn of one pig he was unable to avoid hitting it and in so doing lost his control of the steering wheel. The car turned over in the ditch. Mr. Koch had his left eye cut and his chest injured, while Mrs. Koch was badly bruised and shaken up, Mr. and Mrs. Rolls escaped injury. Damages to the car will amount to about $6o.
