brought through the law offices of Ilar-
vcy, Maurice & Whitney, as a result of
an automobile accident on Linden street,
near the Brattlcboro Retreat Farm
buildings the night of June 8.
Mr.. Pierce alleges that while he was
driving his Hudson car northerly along
said street, at the right of the cen
ter of the travelled road, the defendant
was driving Ford in the opposite direc-
ton and negligently, intentionally, will
fully and maliciously drove his Ford
against the Hudson ear.
Suit also has been brought by Best
against Pierce to recover damages of
5000 partly, because of damages to his
automobile and partly because of the
fact that he was deprived Of the use
of his Ford car while it was being re-
paired This is Il counter suit brought
through the Office of Chase & Hughes.
Best declared in his complaint that
Pierce drove his Hudson machine at an
excessive rate, % miles an hour, that it
was not safely under control, that Pierce
did not use proper care, and that the
Hudson was ont of repair and unfit to
be operated on the highway, the steering
gear being loose and defective.
