Mrs. Loren GLADDEN. has been to
Holland to visit her sister, Mrs. Frank
Faufaw. She was accomanied by
Mrs. Wesley Horn, who returned home
the same day. Mrs. GLADDEN. returned
here accompanied by her sister, Mrs.
Faufaw, who spent the day at S. D.
Barrup's.
Friday afternoon Arthur Kimball of
Derby visited the Monitor correspond
ent and he was as wrathy as the pro-
verbal "wet hem, because she chose
to write up the automobile accident of
last week in which he figured. He
said he was in no way to blame so in
justice to Mr.. Kimball we state the
facts as he gave them and leave the
reader to draw his own conclusion.
Mr.. Kimball stated that he reached
DR.. Hendricks residence going at the
rate of 35 miles an hour and then
Stacked up little as he saw the Pyer
automobile coming by Ernest Worboy's
at the rate of Is miles an hour. Now
when a large car going down grade at
about IS miles an hour. and light
car going on the level at the rate of
Is miles an hour, have collision at
the foot of the grade, we leave it to
our reader as to who did the running
by the statement that he had run into
others. He declared this to be his
first accident but when reminded of the
one in which he participated some time
ago when the people were hurt, the
horse killed and the wagon smashed
he said he was in no way to blame for
that for there would have been no acct
dent if the team had not been there.
We leave it to the judgment of the
people whether teams have right on
the road. Mr.. Kimball also said his
machine did not throw the Pyer auto
over the bank as some think but
simply threw it so near the edge that
it tipped over. Although Mr.. Kimball
is known as fast and reckless driver
he appears to think that in any acci-
dent in which he is involved he is none
to blame. We are content thus to
leave it to our readers.
We are told that "all roads lead to
Rome" and Wednesday,, Aug. IL this,
with different destination, was well
illustrated. for all roads seemed to lead
to the pleasant home of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. II. Kidder. The occasion was the
Miss Mary Esther, to Robert Farman

place at high noon and was out of
