1982 Judge Quintan sold the location of the accident was the key to respons ibility for it and had he found Height to have been in the light horse ring at the time of the accident he would have considered Height to be the author of his own misfortunes Evidence given to the court during the trial in midJanuary showed Mr Height was assisting the heavy horse judge by bringing out the ribbons

cross the line be tween the light horse ring in which she Was competing and the ad jacent ring in which Mr Height was working as a member of the Acton Agricultural Society The facts the judge concluded do not agree with her belie ft Judge found problems in accepting testimony by several members of the Agricultural Society who testified on Mrs Walkers behalf He said recollections by horse ring announcer Jesse were not in accordance With the generally accepted evidence or the other witnesses He also had difficul ty accepting the vers ion of where and hDw the accident took place as presented by Bob Mar shall also a Fair board member His most severe en tic ism of Mrs Walkers witnesses was aimed at Fair board member Bill Thompson It would appear tome that Mr Thompson de cided that
