tanned a woman. the owner of the ma
chine, a small child and the chauffeur
and had been in use only three weeks.
One of the wheels, lamps and springs
on the front of the machine were bad
ly smashed, otherwise it was not dam
aged. The occupants owe their lives
to the fact that when on the center of
the track the driver stalled the engine
by en~deavoring to reverse the move
ment of the car allowing the machine
the rear of which was lower than the
forward part to move backward just
far enough to prevent the train from
hitting the center of the machine.
The party hailed from Atlantic City.
