When they . squeezed out to view the damage . they found both _ Birr and Sweeney' had been thrown out the right door' of their truck, opened by the force of | the impact, and were lying on paveâ€"| ment in pools of blood with severel head gashes. The gruesome sight beâ€"| side the wrecked trucks, brought him, to more clearly, he stated, and each went a different direction on highway’ as best they could, to find a phone, { on their way home from Formosa, | where they had delivered a loai olj |logs, and were almost home, when | their truck collided with a big new | |G.M.C. truck driven by Geo.
