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-

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.
