Phone 41 man east, and the same said of the evidence that was given in the case, The story told by the pieintiff and his witnesses was direct- ly opposite to that related by the de- fence, Prosecution's Story. The evidence for the prosecution placed the blame for the accident on Mr. Lipman. It showed that the col- lision resulted from his car taking up more of the road than it should. Mr. Wilson, so he and his witnesses testified, put his car, which was travelling slowiy over to the extreme side of the roadway; in fact if he had gone over any farther he would have toppled into the ditch. On the other hand, Mr. Lipman had three or four feet to spare on his side of the roadway. Notwithstanding this lee- way, his car crashed into M- Wil- son's, striking it between the font and rear wheels, Instead of follow- ing a straight course, Mr. Lipman's car swerved, the prosecution's ex- planation of this being that an in- structor, who was sitting beside Mr. Lipman, who was driving, also took hold of the wheel when the cars were approaching. That, in brief, was the story told by Mr. Wilson -and his witnesses, James, William and Clarke Hamilton and Robert Bradford, who were in the ear with him. Harry Peters, who repaired the car, told of the damn- ages which it sustained. Mr. Lipman's Defence, For the defence, Mr. Lipman, his wife, his mother-in-law, Mrs. La- france, and the instructor, Albert Sheets, put a different complexi on the accident. - They swore that the accident was caused by the 'negli- gence of Mr. Wilson. When Mr, Lipman saw the other car approach- ing at a fast rate of speed he stopped his car at the edge of the roadway, leaving pienty of room for the other car to pass, Instead of passing them, however the other car crashed. into them without slowing down. Mr, Wilson turned aside, but too late, the rear wheel of his car catching the front wheel of Mr. Lipman's car. covered with mud, Both legs are broken and equally covered with mud and slime. In spite of all 'these hor- rible wounds and the pain caused by them, a smile lights up the face of the hero; he asks for water in a hol- low voice, and after he has received it he says: 'Well, Doc., old sport, we did the trick, and Fritz will not for- get us in a hurry.

God spéed, him and may he have a speedy recov- ery. "Say! - Do you guys at home in your fancy cut suits and dinky shirts and ties, realize what the men are doing out here for you?
