A near accident occurred Sunday
where main street cuts Highway No
1, which is mentioned as a warning
to others, as lives might easily have
been sacrificed in this case A car
with four people in it came down the
pike from the north, at very high
rate of speed, and collided with a car
driven by William Nyrud, who was
just crossing the highway. The i'm
pact occurred some twenty or thirty
feet off from the pavement, which
would indicate that the stranger was
at fault. but the fact Billy Nyrud did
not come to a complete stop before
crossing the arterial line of traffic, is
against him also. 1t is fortunate that
no one was hurt and no material dam
age done.
