REMOVE AUTO
FROM MEADOW
Owner Tells How Car Can
be Secured.
special to the EVENING NEWS.

spectaf 20 the HS w.
Keyport, Jan. 16.-The work of
raising the wreck OF the five pas
senger Hudson touring automobile,
which figured in the accident early
Tuesday evening on the Amboy-
Keyport road a short distance west
of the drawbridge at West Keyport,
occupied the greater part of yester-
day. The salvage of the machine
was under the direction of S. G.
fowler, Of Matawan.
At the time of the accident the
car was being driven by its owner,
Ira Warn, Jr., of Morganville. He
was accompanied by Thomas Wood
ruff, also of that n~eighborhood.
Both men were carried owe the en-
bankment with the machine in it's
fall, being saved from serious injury
or probable death by the fortunate
landing of the automobile, which
was bottom up over a small ditch.
The front end OF the car was sus-
pended upon an old post, while the
rear swung around at nearly right
angles to the road, and rested upon
the edge of the ditch In the meadow.
The owner and his companion were
thereby protected from the weight
of the machine by these fortunate
supports and the ditch running I'M
derneath. They received few In
juries and worked their way out
from under the machine without any
assistance.
According to the story OF the
owner Of the automobile the accl-
dent was caused by riding over the
road with the electric light on the
drawbridge as a guide. The Presto
lights on the machine were not
lighted and after he had made the
slight turn where the road runs
across the meadows from the Cliff
wood land end, he had shaped his
course along the dark road with
straight line for the light on the
bridge A short distance from the
d~rawbridge there exists a slight
bend to the left In the roadway,
which thed river failed to notice.
He consequently kept a straight
course and a over.
After the machine was removed
from the meadows it was towed to
Voorhees, garage at Morganville for
repairs. 1t is badly damaged.
