AN EXPENSIVE COLLISION.


Deputy United States Marshal Fisk re-
Gently brought suit for damages against
Henry Bradley of Danvlle in the sum OF
$4,000 in favor of Prof. Daniel w. Lowell
of Binghamton, NY. This suit grew out
of the result of the injuries which Mr..
Lowell received by being run into by Mr..
Bradleys horses last summer. According
to the statement of the physician attend
ing Lowell's injuries are more serious
than first thought, he having symptoms OF
general paralysis of the whole left
side of his body. He also received
II severe shock to the whole sys-
TEN, and it is feared that he received
Il conclusion of the spinal cord" which
may terminate in organic disease. Several
attempts at Il settlement have been made
and writing was made to the effect that
the matter be left out to three men, one
each selected by Bradley and Lowell, and
the third to be agreed to by both parties
concerned, but the parties disagreed as to
the place of hearing and the suit was
brought The case will be tried at the
session of the United States Circuit Court
to be held at Rutland III October.
