Auto Accident
On Canon City
Salida Road

An automobile accident took place
on the Canon City-Salida road. about
a mile this side of Texas Greek at
4.Se O'Clock last Saturday afternoon.
when a car owned by George e. Trout
OF Hillside was badly damaged in a
collision with machine driven by
E. W. Eddy OF Coaldale- Mr.. Trout
was coming to Canon City aud Mr..
Eddy was going to Texas Greek when
the affair took place. The two cars
came together on a sharp turn in the
road where an avoidance OF COLI
sion by turning to the right would
have been almost impossible, owing
to the narrowness OF the roadway at
that point. The right front wheel of
Mr. .Trout's car was torn on. the. axle
bent and other damage of a more OF
less serious character inflicted. Mr..
Eddy's machine got on easier. and
was able to continue its run to his
destination under its own power. Mr..
Trout's car was brought to Canon
City garage for repairs.
