Ben Handley

Dr. Ben Handley was an American doctor. After succumbing to self-doubt and the bottle, Handley was given a chance at getting back on his feet by family friend Harry Butler, as a parts man for C&A Transport Company in Toronto. Handley was picked up in Buffalo by Mike Malone and Jerry Austin, who had been given orders to drive through Durham to Owen Sound, before returning with a load of fish to Toronto, with a detour off of Highway 6 at Mount Forest. 
Handley failed in his attempts to assist the two men with repairing a fuel line in their truck, and he fell into a malaise. A short while later, the three men happened upon the scene of a car accident. The sight of the overturned cars snapped Handley into action, and he took charge of the scene, ordering Austin to drive to the nearest phone to get help and requisitioning Malone as his nurse. Handley kept the injured and unconscious man with an open heart massage and moving his arms to make him breathe.
After an ambulance arrived, the three men went to the nearest truck stop to get a bite to eat. A local doctor congratulated Handley for having saved the man's life, and Malone assured him that he would be a good replacement for the C&A doctor who was departing for Medicine Hat.
