Five people were in Studebaker

pelier and East Montpelier highway
just below electric plant No. 5, yestcr-
day morning, but all miraculously es-
capped with only few scratches and

of the car, and three younger people.
Irene and Russell Blair. and Miss
Laura Susena, also of Newton,street.
Mr. and Mrs. Blair had Just passed
another car and drove too near the
edge of the road, where he planned TO
leave the car and with the rest of the
party enter the woods nearby in search
of rsspberries. The steep embankment
was hidden by grass and bushes, the
driver little realizing such a steep drop

far as the car was concerned, and con
tinued into the berry field regardless of
their experiences. Later they returned

For Automobile Collision on Barre
Montpelier Road.

A Buick runabout driven by Robert
Jones of Montpelier and an Overland
car driven by Fl. B. Hood of Hardwiek
collided Saturday night about 0 o'clock
at Jerue's crossing on the Montpelier
Barre road, with the result that the
Overland will be disabled for few
days. The steering gear of this machine
suffered the heaviest damage, though
the fender, as that of the Jones car.
was slightly damaged. Mr.. Hood de
clared, it is said, that the car in front
of the Jones auto had glaring lights,
causing him TO be unable to see for a
few seconds his exact location on the
road. On a straight thoroughfare the
accident would undoubtedly have been
averted despite these circumstances,
but such was not possible on the turn,
where the accident happened. No one
was injured and only comparatively
small damage was done to both cars,
the Jones car being In condition to
continue the trip to Montpelier.
