Jap Lock of Keokuk, admires the
American car, and Ross Swigert OF
Carthage is REQ partisan. Each
backed his favorite car with a roll Of
$500 and the test to be race from
the east end of the K. & H. bridge to
Carthage. The American car was to
have handicap OF five minutes. A
few minutes after the start both cars
passed through town at a 40-mile clip.
The American car gained three min
utes on the REQ, but the last named
car captured the purse because it got
into Carthage two minutes ahead OF
the American.
When Swigert reached Carthage.
the hand of the law was outstretched
to receive him and he was summoned
to appear here for trial. He came and
found the city of Hamilton and the
village of Elvaston lined up to receive
him. Attorney Orr represented the
city and fine of 800 and costs wers
levied by the city and minor amounts
were assessed for the township and
Elyaston. These were paid by Swig-
ert
The net was set also for Jap Lock
but he got wind of the feeling here
and turning north at Connables cor
nsr, got to Fort Madison before
word to hold him had been sent north.
