Olen Taylor, a local Insurance agent, said he had just left a dance and was crossing the street when the accident happened before him. He fived the time at ten niinutos to 1? o'clock. M. Taylor Kaid he saw Mr llushnell leave the curb to cross to the west side of Rose street, and noticed the Jitney as it rounded the c ".! bore towards him. He was nbout 75 feet away, he said, when he saw the contact. According to Mi Taylor, the driver of the car did not aee the man until he was within the focus of the headlights. He judged the rate of Hieed at between six and eight miles an hour, which he consid ered to be quite slow. He saw the car stop as soon as the lights fell on the man and saw the car skid a short tlistance on account of the wet pave ment. He said it looked as if Mr llushnell was struck on the legs by a part of the fender on the left sidt of the car. The man then wheeled around, he said, and fell backwards As he fell his head struck with a ter rific force on the pavement.

George McCulloch. another Jilne' driver, testijed he saw the deceasec" a few niinu . a before the accident ai he was going in his car on his wav home. Mr. llushnell at the time was -anitin on the opposite corner am' he noticed that he was not Intoxi rated. He saia on paved streets that it was possible for a car to skid se eral feet although it was not golnr faster than six miles an hour. HJtobert Rrown. the occupant of the jitney, gave a very vivid description of the' accident. He was so shocked that he remained In the car for sev eral minutes and then went to ge' another machine. He said Mr. Hush nell acted as If he was confused whe confronted by the marhine and seeme. to walk directly towards it. He sail' i -it hnT-nne.1 in sn instant and titer was no time for reflection on the par of anvbodv concerned. Alva Hushnell. a brother of the d. ceased, testified as to the latter'? rh'ics condition.
