 Mir. Corey denied that his automo- bile struck the Grouman wagon, and
 
 ped his machine and had helped to get the Grouman horse out of the high way, so as to give space for the ma chine to get past: that passing could not be accomplished at that point ir the highway, so the Grouman rig was driven on until a place was reached where he could get by with his ma chine He repeated that his autonno- bile was not in collision with the Grouran rig.
