that he has found and returned to DR..

Excuses the Driver.

Taking up the defense Of the man
who was driving the machine when the
child was run over E. J. Copper con-
tributes the following:
To the Editor Of The Journal:
In flee of the facts concerning the deplorable
accident at Fourteenth avenue and Fifth street
SE, it seems incredible that the pastor OF one
of ouf leading churches should SO far forget
himself to write letter for publication that
is SO evidently unfair and utterly biased, even
based on thesfacts set forth in his own letter,
That there Is too much reckless driving Of au-
tomobiles on Our streets reasonable man Will
attempt to deny. Mr.. Blythin, whose mfsfor-
tune it was to be driving the car when the
accident occurred, has always been one OF the
most outsDoken in denunciation Of scorchers.
Several of the eyewitnesses state that the horn
was blown and the car moving at q very slow
rate Of speed, the very highest estimate being
six miles an hour, and 1t is probable that four
miles per hour would be more nearly correct.
They also state that they could not see how
the accident could have been avoided.
Any vehicle turning the corner and
under the same circumstances might have caused
the same accident. Yet. In the face Of these
facts, the author Of the letter referred to pro-
ceeds to make such reference to the driver of
the automobile would only add to his grief,
and utterly fails to realize that to such man
the shock must have been terrible Great Is
the grief Of the father In the loss OF his child.
Even greater must be the sorgow Of the man
who was the innocent cause Of the childs death,
all the more so when 1t is considered that he is
a father himself.
Let US all hope that this may be warning
to all drivers Of automobiles to use all possible
care to ACID % dns the %
the public against all drivers Of automobiles.
1t seems strange irony of fate that this accl
dent should have happened with one Of ou1
most careful drivers in the city. Let us all
