victim underneath and the steer
ing wheel crushing his skull.
The elder Mr.. Petry succeeded
in jumping out before the car
turned but from the jar sustain
ed in jumping and trying to lift
the car off from Herman was
completely exhausted. Mrs. Pc
try. too, when she heard Of the
accident, thinking that both were
killed, took fainting spells. and
q physician worked over her for
several hours--but at this writ
ing both she and Mr.. Petry are
somewhat better.
Herman was a young man Of
pleasing personality, about %
years old. He had served his
country overseas at the front and
had seen hard fighting. He re-
turned home early last summer
