A bad shake-up, some bruises, broken
thills and harness alone is left of what
might have been serious accident when
Montpelier car hit the truck team of
James Fife as he was coming home from
Duxbury, where he had been with load
of goods With him was Joe Marten,
who had an injured knee, and Mr.. Fife
was more or less bruised, being thrown
from the high seat on the team. The
accident occurred at the Waterbury end
of the Waterbury Duxbury covered
bridge, where most of the accidents
about here have happened. The approach
to this bridge from both ends is con-
sidered very bad and on this main thor
oughfare from Montpelier to Burlington
it would seem that some changes should
be made. The man driving the car was
in town Saturday and settled satisfac-
torily, it is claimed Mr. Fife says he
does not know his name. Much caution
should be used by all automobilists en-.
tering this bridge from either way.
