might have resulted seriously was
the car driven by Mrs. Harry Peart
of this city, accompanied by Mrs.

meth Denton and Albert Martin, two
young lads of the valley. Mrs. Peart's
car had been working rather badly
all the way out the highway as far
as the J. f. Brown ranch, 9 miles east
| of town. where Mrs. Peart noticed
that the accelerator was not work
ing and leaned over, attempting to
make it work. Just at this time the
front wheel struck a bad chuck hole
in the road and the car turned COM
pletely over on its side and into
small ditch. Mrs. Peart was fastened
in the car, as she was driving, and
could not Immediately extricate her
self from between the steering wheel
and the brake. The young lads went
out of the back end of the car, but
fortunately no one was seriously hurt,
except Mrs. Peart, who was badly
bruised. Mrs. McLeods S left arm was
slightly sprained.
