With Automobile
Drivers Unhurt

A collision between an Overland
car and a motorcycle and side car,
about 1890 Thursday noon at the
corner of Willow and Bangor streets,
resulted in considerable damage to
the motorcycle. although, fortunately
those in the two vehicles were not
injured. The name of the lady driv-
ing the Overland was not learned
but it was understood that she lives
at Pettingill's corner. The driver Of
the motorcycle it is thought it named
ThibOdeau.
The accident occurred as the Over
Nand was going south on Bangor
street and the motorcycle was pro-
ceeding in the opposite direction,
Witnesses said that the motorcycle
turned into Willow street just ahead
of the approaching automobile and
that the two machines came together
with considerable force. The motor
cycle was pushed toward the curb
for some distance and the tires were
rolled from the wheels by the blow.
Both local and State Highway police
were on hand within a few minutes
investigating the accident.
