FUNERAL HALTED
BY MUDDY ROAD
BEYOND SILVIS

Deplorable condition of the road
just beyond the end of the Silvis
street car line. has been the source
of extreme grief to motorists since
the thaw and heavy rain of Friday.
The only persons who seem pleased
over the situation are three men,
who taking advantage of the plight
of the motorists, are said to be
charging big prices for pulling the
machines out of the mire with
teams.
The most unfortunate mishap due
to the muddy roads occurred yester-
day when a funeral procession was
delayed one and half hours. There
were three machines besides the
hearse and the pallbearers' car, and
it was necessary to have each of the
motor vehicles lowed a half mile
by horses. This had to be repeated
on the return from Barstow where
the burial took place.
Charles MatLson, deputy state fire
marshal, was one of the unfortunate
motorists who had a typical exper-
fence with the transfers.
At the end of the pavement, he
wound a man with a team He is
said to have aSSed the fellow if it
was possible to get through the mud
with a car. The man told him it
was, but after going SO feet the car
became stuck. Then the man with
the horses asked the state official if
he wanted to be pulled out Mattson
said no and proceeded to give the
fellow an Old-fashioned cussing.
Later Mattson called to come and
get him, then when he was out of
the mud Mattson asked the man his
price. The man told him and Matt
son invited him to take it out on his
hide. The challenge was not ac-
cepted, and after giving the man
another good cussing, Mattson
handed him 40 cents and returned
to Moline
One of the "rescuers" is said to
have collected $35 before the noon
hour yesterday.
