a car owned and driven by w. l..

was upon her before she could get
out Of its path. Observing the child,
Mr.. Hutchins. slowed his car as
qrickly as possible The child, ac-
cording to witnesses, grabbed at on7
of the headlights of the car when the
vehicle struck her. The force Of the
machine threw her to the roadway,
though the wheels did not pass over
