In turbulent midstream on the Wll

hla own lifo thla morning. Wlnslow
waa a wood dealer well known In Mar

Looming ahead of the launch waa
tho grcot center concrete pier of the

of the launch saw that the boat waa
headed dlroctly for the pier, and that
only a mlrnclo could aave It from be
ing crushed like an eggshell against
tho concrete.
Wlnslow, with two or three other
passengers, was In tho bow of the
bont. Wlnalow seized a plkepole, and
bracing himsolf. Jammed the polo
against It. It was believed that Wln
agnlnst the pier as the boat was hurlod
slow's efforts with the plkopole are
what caused tho launch to swerve to
one side nnd strike tho pior a glancing
blow, othorwlse the launch would prob
ably have boon upset and ninny on

WlnBlow was knocked from his foet
by tho Impact nnd thrown Into the

saw him swirled away. Four times

of the waters. An attempt was made
to throw a life proserver to him, but
It proved futtlo.

All' the allegations set out in the
suit ot Frank Fish and his two daugh
ters, Amy and Alice Etta, who recently
brought action against the county (or
an aggregate of $4400 damages on
the charge that an automobile accident
in which the two girls are said to
have been hurt and the machine dam
aged last August near New Era was
due to negligence on the part ot the
county, were denied in an answer filed
Thursday by County Attorney Hedges
and Deputy Burke.
As a result Fish will be forced to
prove at the time of the trial that the
road was in bad shape and that the
county was responsible for it.
In his complaint Fish charged that
the machine went over a 10-foot em
bankment because the roadway, whose
edge was concealed by a growth of
weeds, crumbled under the car when
he attempted to turn aside and allow
a large automobile to pass him.
