unconscious by the impact of the |
car with the frozen ground but the |
young son. although severely cut by |
the flying glass, shook and called |
his mother until she revived. The |
mother then attended to the sons |
wounds and faced the problem of
escape or the dangers of lengthy
wait i'm the car. Believing the boy
unable to brave the blizzard and
fearing to leave him alone in the

effects of the darkness and the howl
ing storm, they were rescued by

the lights of the machine about two
