season occurred last Saturday morn
ing when a car driven by Mr.. Wilson
of lMontrose, turned over on the Bic
bel hill two miles out of town. Mr..
Wilson was not hurt, but Bert Pepper

dent was caused when Mr.. Pepper
grabbed the wheel as they came
around the sharp curve at the top.
He says he had the car under prefect
