1t Was A Good
Time To Happen

1t was a mighty good thing no
west-bound car was coming along
Route about 8:15 Friday morning
near the Toussaint bridge.
The safety pin on trailer load
ed with 12-ton roll of steel be-
came loose as the truck driver,
Arthur E.. Cooper of Dearborn,
Mich, came across the bridge. In
his mirror, some 1000 feet from
the bridge, he saw the trailer weav-
ing and hit the brakes.
The outfit jacknifed, and the
trailer went over into the opposite
lane and overturned. Deputy
sheriff James Ellenberger directed
one-way traffic while the road was
being cleared, and the steel was
moved to the side of the road
pending arrival of another outfit
from the Hess Carriage Co.
