HOllencamp's Story.
Hollencamp, who was driving the
smaller car in the mixup, asserted that
ne was not driving at excessive speed
de declared that Abbott turned toward
the ditch to avoid a collision and that
ne stopped his car so quickly that the
putting on of the brake caused it to
| turn over.
| At the scene of the accident there
| were several reports of liquor being
found and one of the men who aided
Abbott and his injured friends found
large bottle of moonshine in a barn
near the scene Of the accident. Both
Hollencamp and Lambert insisted that
they had not been drinking and that
they had no liquor in their car. Depu-
ty Sheriff Stanley Rauen took care of
the case for the ,sheriff's office and
after he had made some investigation
he brought both Hollencamp and Lam
| bert to the Jail in Kenosha.
The Abbott car was badly damaged
but the car driven by Hollencamp got
away with nothing more serious than a
/ badly bent fender.
