JERVIS Hatchery &Feeds CLINTON-Phone 194w, river Is' Injured As Train Hits Car Earl Hopp of Kitchener While Seated In Car Was Thrown 50 Feet Ey Locomotive A level crossing v accident which narrowly missed being a fatality, oc- cur'r'ed at 2,45 p.m.. on Monday, July 19th on No. 4 Highway, three miles north of here. r e. Earl Hopp. ofKit- chener, t- chener traveling " salesman driving north, failed to see the C.N.R. Wing- ham-to-London ing- hani-to 0 L n on train, due here dat 3 p.m., approaching, until he was al- most on the crossing. He then jam- med his brakes down, but the marks on the pavement indicate that the wheels slid and landed him on the rails co -instant with the approach of the engine. The car, a new Chevro- let coach, was rammed broadside, just to' the rear of the right door and was thrown across a deep ditch a distance of some fifty feet. The driver being. on the opposite side, and alone, es- caped with severe shock and some bad head and face injuries. ?:Ie was not thrown out. The driver of the locomotive, Jaynes Clelland, stopped the train and the crew rendered first aid, phoned for a doctor, put the in- jured man aboard the train and brought him to the station. The car was badly smashed and the engine damaged to the extent of a broken front guard. Dr. Fred Thompson was at the station when the train arrived and treated the unfortunate man's injuries at his surgery. It is thought that stepping on the gas in- stead of the brake might have shot the car over the track ahead of the train.
