"Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affecti passions, fed with the same food, with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and coojed by the same winter and summer; as a Christian is?" In closing the speaker called upon Christians and Jews to work together in the establishing of world-wide bro- therhood, "Let you who bear His name, join with us who share His blood, in bring- ing in a happier and better day when all shall be as brothers." Simply, Rev, Mr. Harston expressed appreciation for the rabbi's address. He characterized it as the most in- 4piring message which had cver been given from the church pulpit. A male choir under the able direc- tion of J. H. Renwick, leader and or- ganist, sang with splendid effect, "Let the Lower Lights be Burning" As an offertory number Mr. Owen, tal- ented violinist from Port Perry, played a pleasing selection, accompa- nied by Mr, Renwick on the organ. A baritone solo by Mr, Frank Owen was also much enjoyed. MOTORIST WHO RAN INTO TRAIN IS GIVEN DAMAGES (Continued from page 1) poration limits of the Town where | there is a steep slope on the high- way inclining towards the rallway track, "Tho night was dark and foggy in low places and particularly go at this point, but there was no fog' along the highway except iu low places and swamp. "The defendant company was operating a long Freight Train consisting of forty-eight box-cars and a caboose and had been pro- ceeding into Lindsay and at about 8.25 p.m. stopped on this Highway and remained there for a period of upwards of twenty-five minutes, the seventh box car from the rear stradling and obstructing the highway at which time and place was damp and slippery, thereby "| creating a dangerous situation for persons using the highway with motor cars. "The plaintiff, accompanied by his brother, was proceeding along this highway in a sedan motor car, equipped with two-wheel brakes "and was about to cross the rail { way tracks on his way to Lindsay when the accident occurred. Saw Train Too Late 'The plaintiff in the witness box appeared to be a very intelli- gent man, with fifteen years' ex- perience in driving a motor car. He had knowledge of the location of this crossing, and it was known to him to be rough. He was cor. roborated by his brother, and swore that when he approached within about thirty feet of the railway tracks, he released his clutch, in order to relieve the strain in passing over the tracks, when sud. denly the box car Joomed in view through the fog he immediately applied his brakes, but it was too late, and the car skidded into the train and was damaged. "I find that the plaintiff was lawfully travelling on the highway at the time of the accident, and knowing that he was approaching the rallway, slowed down to the proper speed, and cautiously and carefully looked right and left for trains. That there was no noise or sign of a train nor was there any light, and he suddenly found him- self in a trap, by the car obstruct- Ing the highway Immediately in front of him, Plaintiff Exonerated "I find that the plaintiff in the ircumstances did all that a reas- onably careful driver could do to. avold the accident. "I ac¢cept the evidenco of Vin- cent Gunn, an independent wit. ness, who testified that he was standing with his car on the other side of the track and heard the Impact and that he thought the train was standing on the Highway for ten or fifteen minutes before the accident, and who was quite positive under cross-eexamination that it stood there for seven or eight minutes at least. I prefer his evidence to that of the Conductor and Brakesman, as to the time af. ter the stop, because since they did not intend to uncouple the cars, this tima was of no Importance to them. "I find therefore that the train was 80 obstructing the highway for more than five minutes before the accident occurred, contrary to the provisions of the Hallway Act. No Authority Shown It is argued however, that even if this be the fact, the defend- ant Company was operating fits railway within its rights at that particular place, but no order of the Railway Doard or other au- thority was produced to show that it had any right to obstruct the Highway for a period of over five minutes approaching its Station or otherwise. It was also contended that the obstruction was not in any event the proximate cause of the accident, "The eveidence shows that the train was standing there on the public highway in the still of the night without a sound or light or any kind and obscured by fog. Had it moved off or uncoupled within the statutory time, the plaintiff would undoubtedly have passed over the track in safety. "The omission of the Company to take any precaution which they are directed by Statute to take, is always evidence of negligence in favour of the person who is in- jured by the neglect of the Com. pany to take the precaution. See-- Grand Trunk vs. Hainer, 36 S.C.R. 180. "I think therefore that in the absence of negligence of the plain. tiff it is a fair inference of fact, that the defendant's neglect of the statuory duty, and failing to get off the highway, was the proxi- mate cause of the accident. Could Have Avoided Accident "It is contended that the fact of the train remaining on the High- way for upwards of twenty-five minutes is not material, I agree that the time is not material be- yond the moment of the accident, but it is evidence ot show that the men operating it, had no intention to uncouple or move off, and that they remained in the caboose, in. stead of being at the Highway crossing with a light, uncoupling the train within five minutes of the stop, which very necessary and usual statutory requirement would almost certainly have avoided this accident, "The principles lald down In Weaver vs, C.N.R. 18, Can, Ry. cas. 48, and cases therein cited can be applied. "There is no dispute amount of damages, "There will therefore be judg: went for the plaintiff for $97.65 and costs, This is signed by Judge Robert Ruddy, of Whitby, before whom the case was tried, to the rr ---- Shorthorn Sale Peterboro.~Twelve shorthorn cattle were sold for $922.50 at the thirteenth annual auction sale under the auspices of the Peterborough County Short- horn Breeders' Association at the Exhibition grounds, CANADIANS SHOW CLASS New Yosk, Feb, 16.--The Mon- treal Canadiens, champions of the hockey world--at least until the play-offs come again---showed their championship calibre vne mote last night ag they downed the New York Americans 2 to 0 in a hard-fought National Hockey League struggle.
