Driver Averts Accident

Ralph Dotson, driver of one of the
Monongahela Transport Company's
BUSES, narrowly everted serious ac-
cident Tuesday afternoon, October %,
when the bus he was driving stalled
on the railroad tracks at Caddell. A
freight train hit the bus, scraping one
side Of it and tearing away one Of the
fender and bumper. Several passen-
gers were on the vehicle when the ac-
cident occurred and considerable ex-
element ensued, although no one was
injured.
Dotson was driving the bus which
arrives in Oakland about two O'Clock
and was descending the hill at Cad
dell when a lady arose in her seat.
Dotson, thinking she wanted to alight
at the railroad crossing, stopped the
bus and then the woman decided she
wanted to go on for a short distance
further.
There was no train in sight, accord
ing to the passengers. The motor of
the bus stalled just as it reached
the track and a freight train rounded
sharp curve. With quick presence
of mind the driver swung the bus to
one side and the engine went by
striking the vehicle sufficiently to tear
off a fender and a bumper.

Meshack Browning's Book Do
mated to Washington Library

A copy of Meshack Browning's
book, "Forty-four Years of the Life
of a Hunter" has been purchased by
the OAKLAND Civic Club and has been
sent as 4 gift to the library of General
Federation of Women's Clubs head
quarters in Washington, D. c.
The Washington library is made up
of gift books from every club in the
Federation. The Browning book has
just been published in its third edl-
ton, the first edition having been
published seventy years ago.
The record of early days in Garrett
county is worthy Of a place beside
the exploits of Davy Crockett, Daniel
Boone and other American frontiers
men and pathfnders. 1t is difficult to
realize the conditions existing less
than hundred years ago. The Brown
ing records the story Of hunting big
game in the mountains of this county
wherein the hunter killed during his
experience more than two thousand
deer, four hundreds bear, fifty pan
theirs or mountain lions and scores of
wolves.
In searching for a copy of this
book is was learned that it is now
more in demand than ever before.
