AUTOIST DRIVES
CAR INTO DITCH
AND DISAPPEARS
Massachusetts Car Lands
Side-up on Danville Road
Seek Owner

An automobilist driving a car num-
bered 76013 MASS. registry took a
twenty-foot slide through space on
the West Danville road yesterday
when his car turned over on its side,
and he has disappeared completely.
There is some mystery about the
accident which the authorities have
so far failed to clear up.
The accident happened on the road
between Danville Center and West
Danville. Tracks in the road show
that the car ran along the edge of
the ditch for fifty feet. The front
wheel then struck culvert and was
smashed off. The car turned over on
its side.
A space in the grass twenty feet
ahead shows where the driver of the
car landed. He had gone over the
windshield which was not damaged.
Whether the driver was injured or
not could not be learned today. 1t is
believed ne was picked up by pass
ing automobilist and possibly taken
to Montpelier.
The car is an Abbott t-Detroit road
ster. By the side of the car was
found an order book of the, Davis
Baking Company. There was also
an order for films for the Colonial
Theatre of Andover, Mass.
The place where the accident oc-
CURED is close to the Ainsworth cot
tage. This house is now unoccupied
and no one in the vicinity knew of
the accident
The car was in Danville yesterday

gasoline.

place is in the Colodney block,
where three young men, Earl Fits
patrick, Kenneth Carson and Roy
Charland were playing cards. Wiley
was not present at the time of the

such hands as this, there VIII be some
shooting going on" At the same
time lie opened a drawer in a bureau
in the roonl end took out a revolver
that belonged to. Wiley, laid it on
the liable, and it is reported that lie
said, 81 gHesj we'll begin the shoot
ing now," and fired the fatal shot.
The bullet entered his face urdeG
his left eye. passed up to Tire brain
and then took a course downward
and lodged in the base of the brain.
The occupants of the block were
awakened from their slumber and i'm
mediately located the room where
the shooting took place.
DR.. B. d. Lange and DR.. J. H.
Gaines were summoned, but Charland
had lost much blood and they
thought from the course that the bull
let had taken in his head that prob
ing for it would be of no use. He
was made as comfortable as possible. 1
Roy Charland is the son of Tom
Charland of Maple ST., Newport. He
is Is years old and was employed in
the Express and Standard newspaper
office. He has been employed there
for the past five years and has work
ed while going to school. Since

that Wiley owned the revolver and
knew where he kept it. The shooting

All of the Pierce and st. Croix coun-
ty boys Of the first drafts will readily
recognize the genial smile of their for
ner stop kick" Harvey G. Smith, of
Maiden Rock
Harry, although certain of exempt
ion through the dependency of his
wife and child, waived all claims, pre-
ferring to do his part as soldier.
He went to Camp with the boys Of
Pierce and st. Croix counties on Sept.
10, 1917, and before many weeks was
appointed by Captain Puffer to sue
coed 'Blinky' Stewart as First Ser
geant Of the Company-Co. 3D." 341st
mi. and in that capacity he went to
France just year later. He returned
last May, having received his honor
able discharge at Camp Dix.
At the Homecoming in Ellsworth last
Wednesday dozens of the old Co. "D'
boys met and talked over old times.
Some were with the company only
short time, very few, in fact, of the
original members but had been trans
ferred before the Seth Division went
to France. But they all remembered
Harv and were mighty glad to greet
him again. Harv preached the idea
of holding a reunion of the old Co. D
boys, and suggests that it be held in
River Falls, as this city is centrally
located in the territory from which
these boys came.
Harv says that he has heard from
both Capt. Puffer and Lieut.. Moore,
and that they are in business, with
headquarters in Chicago.
