Last night about mid night Phillips, while returning to his home at Ralph from Tuscaloosa, started to cross the bridge in a Ford car, not knowing the bridge was open to allow boat to pass, and the ma chine with the occupant plunged into 50 feet of water.
 R. c. Quarels, the bridge-keeper. reported this morning he heard the car take the plunge, but did not know who the driver was. The car was gotten out of the river short time before the body was found. No other body has been found in the river and 1t is doubtful if another person was with Phillips at the time
 Phillips was married and had four children. He did not report to work this morning and was absent from home and this led to the belief that he was the one who drove the au- tomobile into the river. Phillips op- erated lumber concern at Ralph
