That from the evidence 1t appears
that the accident was attributable to
the fault Of no one but Rossignull
himself, the decision Of the Public
Utilities Commission states in the
matter Of the accident on the An
droscoggin & Kennebec Street Rail-
way near Leavitt's Crossing at Togus
May Is last. which resulted in the

Weeks Mills.
"on May IS. 1922. at about II P.

cis!on which was rendered Monday.
"As car No. ESQ, which leaves
Togus for Augusta at 1890 P. NJ,
had crossed the highway at what is
known as Leavitts Crossing, the
motorman, James Carbino. saw a
man either jump or fall on the rails
about 10 feet in front Of the car.
THE motorman shut off the power
and applied the brakes, bringing the
car to stop as soon as possible, but
not in time to prevent the front
wheels Of the car from passing over
the man. The motorman. assisted by
some OF the passengers, made a
search and found the man under the
car.
The man was lying parallel with
the car. His face and hands were
covered with blood. He had a scalp
wound on the back Of his head, one
on his forehead and one under the
right eye. His left hand was bruised
The left leg was completely crushed
and the right leg was crushed but
not broken. The man was placed in
the car and was identified as Mich
olas E. Rossignull OF Weeks Mills. An
ambulance was called and he was re-
moved to the Augusta General hos
pital, where he died two hours
later"
