ceremony in the National Guard

Deadlocked Twice
In Damage Suit
AlIegany County Jury Unable
To Agree on Suit of Clara c.
Shaffer

For the second time petit jury
failed to agree in a damage suit case
for $4,000, after an all-day trial.
The case, first tried in Oakland and
removed to Allegany county when a
jury deadlocked and could not agree,
is suit filed by Clara C. Shaffer, Of
Swanton, against Arnold f. Fox, Of
Friendsville, gasoline distributor.
At Cumberland on Tuesday the
jury reported it could not agree, and
reported the vote as six to six. The
court then dismissed the jury.
Miss Shaffer, represented by Clar-
ence Shutter, asked compensation for
a broken back and other injuries she
sustained when her car was wrecked
March Is, 1919.
She declared her car was forced
from the road by gasoline truck
which she contended was driven by
Fox. She said her machine went
into a soft shoulder as she at
tempted to miss the truck which she
claims was in the center of the road
as it approached her. She told the
jury her car went up bank and over
turned. She was hospitalized for a
month at Keyser and confined to her
bed for another six weeks. She suf-
fered loss of wages from March IA to
December % and paid $4,000 hospital
and doctor bills.
A witness to the accident, Charles
Ginger, Pottsville, Pa, former Vim
deX resident, stated that he saw the
truck bearing down on Miss Shaffer's
machine, taking his half out of the
middle" Ginger did not identify the
driver of the truck. Both Miss Shat
fer and Ginger testified the driver of
the truck did not stop.
w. Earle Cobey, E. r. Jones and
L. r. Jones, who represented Fox,
presented testimony to show that
Fox was not in that vicinity at the
time of the mishap and it was not his
truck.
1t was not indicated if new trial
will be attempted.

Streamliner Ends Run

The Cincinnatian made its last run
between Baltimore and Cincinnati on
Saturday, and was scheduled to begin
its run between Cincinnati and De-
troit on Sunday.
1t was put in service between Balti
more and Cincinnati in January, 1947,
with nine stops. Upon a number of
occasions it made stops in Oakland
for visiting dignitaries, during the
Centennial, and for one or two emer-
gencies
The B. and O. said the streamliner
did not carry sufficient passenger
traffic between the two towns to pay
expenses. Four trains still operate
daily over the same route westbound
and five eastbound.
