Clear Lake, April 14.-while driving
to Clear Lake from Miller on Sunday
Peter Peterson met with an accident
on the mile of cement paving between
Clear Lake and Mason City that came
near costing him his life and the lives
Of his wife and wife's sister, who ac-
companied him. The trio were enroute
to this city to visit Mr.. Peterson's
brother, George Peterson. They were
driving about the usual rate Of speed,
as Mr.. Peterson was not a fast driver,
when big dog jumped in front Of the
car. causing the machine to leave the
cement pavement as it ran over the
dog. The next thing the driver knew
he was pinioned under his car which
lay on its side crosswise a barbed wire
fence twenty-five feet from the pave
ment.
The ladies' who occupied the back
seat We're thrown clear of the car and
fence and escaped with but few
sever cut on the face which required
four or five stitches to close the wound
Her sister escaped almost without a
scratch. BY the assistance Of the
ladies and others who We're passing by.
Mr.. Peterson was quickly relieved from
his helpless position and hurried to
Clear Lake where he was placed in
the hospital and his bruises treated.
1t seems miraculous. but he escaped
without a broken hone and outside Of
a few minor hurts and bruises was
none the worse for wear and returned
to his home yesterday morning.
