bridge over a ditch. The bridge had
no railing and is reported to have
been leaning to one side. Mr.. J. L.
Derrett, travelling salesman for Hon.
derson & Baird Hardware Co., passed
over the bridge = few minutes before
the accident. -
Several cars crossed tho bridge af-
ter the accident but the occupants
thought no one was under the wreck
in the ditch. One gentleman in pass
ing could see no signs of anyone in
the wreck but looked back after cross
ing the bridge and noticed something
white extending a few inches from
under the car on one side. Upon in
vestigation it proved to be the hand
Of Mr.. Sutton, the only part Of his
body that was showing from under the
car. The hand was several inches un-
der the water.
The car was Immediately removed
and the remains taken from the ditch.
