McGillivray, turned 'a verdict that the death of Mrs. 'Rosina, .. who, was: killed instantly on the Kingston Highway a mile anda half west of Whitby on Saturday night when struck by a Lar driven by Roland A. Varder, of 1 Milverton Boulevard, Toronto, was accidental. : The accident took place while the unfortunate woman was crdssing the highway almost' in. front of her home, to post a letter m a mail box on the north side of the road, and near the driveway of Mrs. Doan. . The jury. heard the evidence of several witnesses, including the driv- er-of the death car, who testified that he did not sce the woman until it was too late to avoid hitting her, as she appeared very suddenly in iront of his. lights; W.C. McMillan, a former provincial police officer and eye wit- ness of the tragedy; Dr. G. L. Mac- dougall, who was called to the scene of the accident to render medical assistance, and found the woman dead; Traffic Officer Sidney Hilliard who measured the skid marks on the pavement; Chief Gunson, of Whitby, who described the woman's injuries; Victor Johnston, motor expert, and several others. John Loach, son of the deceased, was called for the identification of his mother's body. He said she had good hearing, and fair sight, having however, to wear glasses. ' Dr. Macdougall Dr. G. L. Macdougall testified that when he arrived at the scene of the accident the woman was lying on the pavement in a pool of blood. There was no sign of life. He gave it as his opinion that deceased died as the result of a deep fracture of the skull, and of shock. The woman's injuries were described to the jury. George Fry, of 299 Margueretta "Street, Toronto, testified that he left Whitby about 10.30, travelling west, when he saw a woman on the south side of the road, just going across. His attention was attracted to the woman by what he thought was a white apron. She was about 15 feet from him, and had just taken one .step forward in the road. There was one car coming east, and the woman seemed to hesitate as if waiting for it. to pass to go across. There was a car behind him and just after pass- ing the woman he looked in his front mirror and saw the car behind him strike her. She was more than half way across the road when struck. He fiofped his car, and saw the woman: ing on the side of the road off the pavement, and went to phone for a "doctor, _Robert Connell, 243 Leslie St, To- fonto coming east towards, Whitby, saw some cars stopped on the high- way. Stopping, he saw a woman's body lying on the payement near the uth side of the curb, the head fac- ing west. The body was partly wedged between the bumper and the radiator, and he helped to release her and put her on a gsass. / Ww. C. W. C. McMillan, 109 River Street, Toronto, an ex-provincial police officer, gave most important evidence. PHONE 378. NEXT THE POST OFFIO on Monday evening, re-| Car co , towards moderate rate of spe ed in' 8 of his stepped_right * into the gar; gomi west, icemed to be wa slowly an n she passed his" head- lights .she was well on to the centre of the road, The car which struck the woman swung to the right angle, and when he thought that it might hit him he applied - his brakes, Mr. McMillan said that when he stopped his car the woman was lying with her head and lower part of her body out from 'the car, the head facing west, He assisted in picking her up, felt her pulse and conc thiit she was dead. 'Adady who came up and said she was a nurse pronounced her dead, Mr, McMillan figured' that Varder's car skidded 40 feet. The road is dark at that point, he said, Crown Attorney J. H. McGibbon commended Mr. McMillan for the frank manner in which he gave his evidence. Miss Dorothea Thompson Miss Dorothea Thompson, of 223 Wine Avenue, Toronto, who was in the front seat of the car which struck the woman, told: of sceing figure dart suddenly in front of ge car, pausing well on to the centre" of the road. When the car struck the figure the driver applied his brakes and swerved to the left. Car was going about 30 miles an hour, when it struck the woman, and stopped about five feet from the curb, Miss Thompson thought th& centre of the car struck the woman, and that she was carried about 40 feet. The car had large radiator cap, which she believed struck the woman's head. Mrs. Elsie Thompson, mother of previous witness, was in the back seat of the Varder car, She did not see the accident but when the car stopped suddenly her head went through the glass at the back of the car. But for the fact that she had her head down attending to her boy, she might have been seriously injur- ed. Traffic Officer Hilliard 1» Traffic Officer Sidney Hilliard who was called to the scene of the acci- dent found the woman dead on the side of the road, the husband with 'her. The skid marks on the highway were on an angle and measured 40 feet and one inch from where they started to the side of a blood clot on the road. He measured and ex- ined the car, finding the bump on the left side bent up, the radiator cap pushed back with a small dent beneath it. There was blood on the radiator cap, and he thought that it struck the woman on the head. The speed at which the car stopped would depend on how hard the brakes were applied. alter Ferguson, and R. M, Dey- crelt corroborated the evidence of Officer Hilliard, They were with him when raéasurements were made. as Wi s Arthur © Loach, son of deceased woman, testified that his mother was wearing a white. apron to her knees, dark red dress. She was crossing the road to mail a letter, he said. Victor Johnston, of t Ontario Motor Sales, Whitby, testified. that he found the brakes on the car 98 per cent perfect. A car travelling 30 miles an: hour should stop in 40 or 45 feet, | Chief Gunson was called to tell the jury the extent of the dead woman's injuries, Accident Dazed Driver Roland A. Varder, driver of the jury that was travelling about 30 car which struck the woman, told the hu that 6 wag Srveing shows 3 car...» way, face turned to the west An officer came to him and he gave him all particulars. Witness stated that he had driven for five years and had never had an accident, Coroner Dr. McGillivray referred to the' tragic death of deceased and of the daughter over a yedr ago un- der similar circumstances. The fam- ily, he stated, had gone through a great deal of trouble and was deserv- ing of every sympathy. Dr. McGilli- vray stated that there was evidence that the woman after being struck d| had been dragged for some distance, and that she went down between the front bumper and the radiator. He thought that stopping in forty feet, when heading for a ditch as the Var- der car was, was pretty good work. Thete was also evidence that the driver had tried to swerve to the left tc avoid hitting' the woman but he did not have gnough tine, = erdict i The jury's verdict, reached after about an hours' deliberation, was that the death of Mrs. Loach was purely accidental. The foreman of the jury was Mr. Albert Richardson. SHRINERS' BAND GAVE A CONCERT AT ONT. HOSPITAL Temple Team Salina, Kan- sas, With Band and Char- ters Well Received The fine band of the Salina Tem- ple, Order of the Mystic. Shrine, of Kansas, numbering thirty-five pieces, visited the Ontario Hospital in Whit- by on: Monday afternoon and gave a splendid open: air concert for the benefit of the patients and staff. The visitors, who are attending the Shriners" Convention in Toronto, arrived in a Collacutt coach and were met at the Hospital by Dr. G. H. Stevenson, medical superintendent.

The Maple Leaf and the Na- tional Anthem were included in the programme, The visitors had hoped to remain [Tor supper and give a concert in the hall in the evening but had to return to the city for other engagements. Needless to say they were given a warm welcome at the Hospital. Johnny has told a falsehood and his mother is anxiously talking with him, "The Bible says, Johnny," she told him, "that no one who tells lies. can go to heaven." = "Mama." he asked. "did you ever tell a lie?" "I dare sdy I did, my son. when I was very small like you, and did not realize how wicked it was." "Did papa ever tell & lie?" "Perhaps he might, when he was a little boy, but he would not do it now." "Well," remarked {the young philosopher, - "I don't know as I care about going to heaven, if there isn't going to be anybody there but God and George Washington."

School Board Meet Tonight meeting of the Public is being held this evening at the school. Much import- ant" business will be discussed and the meeting is likely to have a lively session, A special School Trustees Alf Shrubb Beaten Alfred Shrubb of Bowmanville who for the past 25 years has held many world's records has had no less than six taken from him recently by Paavo Nurmi, the famous flying Fin who now holds more track records than any other man. In the six mile run he beat Shrubb's record by 23 sec- onds, He has also taken the record for the 10 mile run which was also held 'by Alfred Shrubb. One thing Bowmanville people can be proud of is that they have a man in their conimunity who has held for the past years no less than eight 'world's re- cords. That means to'say in a quar- ter of a century there has only been one man, the flying Fin, that has been able to pass the'speed of the fleet footed Alf. Shrubb of Bowman- ville, Unemployed A meeting is scheduled for this af- ternoon of the Unemployed of Bow- manyille called by the National Un- employed Association of Canada of Which Mr. Bateman is secretary. Bateman is the same man who was previously convicted for his activities in Toronto and he is scheduled to be one of the speakers in Bowman- ville. The funny part of the affair is that the meeting is advertised to take place in the Town Hall and the police have issued orders that the meeting is not to be held there. So about the time we are going to. press these members of the Unemployed executive: will probably be looking for another place to hold their meet- ing. Election Interest With the Conservative nomination a thing of the past, Bowmanville is anxiously awaiting the date of the Liberal Convention and the name of the Liberal Candidate. There has hardly been a whisper about whos' who in the Liberal camp and. only one name has been mentioned very much aud that is the name of Tom Holgate, rofmer mayor and Bowman- ville merchant, There will be quite a battle if' two local people are in the field again as they were in the Provincial election, ; Rebuild Spire A.
