August s. according to a delayed dis
patch which reached the local Stude-
baker branch yesterday afternoon. The
car pulled into the city covered with
mud after fast days run, the home
stretch of which comprised the first
good roads which had been met in the
southern republic.
A dramatic feature of the arrival of
the car, says the dispatch, was the fact
that ". J. Lane, the regular driver,
piloted the car to the finish. Against
the advice of his physicians, Lane in
sisted on accompanying the car to the
end of its journey, but he was, how
ever, obliged 10 travel ahead of the car
through some portions of Mexico. On
the day of the cars arrival Lane had
to be assisted to the wheel.
A big parade of EMF 80" and
Flanders ''20'' and other cars met the
under three flags outfit near the city
limits and the triumphal entry was one
long TO be remembered. a popular
demonstration occurred at the ST.
Charles " monument, which was
passed en- route to the garage.
The Flanders 20" was the first car
10 enter Mexico via Laredo and the first
10 traverse a large portion Of the terri
tory from there TO the end of the jour
ney. The total mileage for the car
was 4,l27. but a triffe longer than the
shortest route by rail between the two
points.
