Hoy Takes Stand.
Sharon Twitchell, the boy plaintiff,
was the first witness called this mor
ning. He appeared somewhat con
futed in his remembrance of the ac
cident but testified that he had rid
den down Court and turned into Lee
when he saw the auto hearing down
upon him. The car was on the east
side of the street, he said, and was
coming directly toward him. He tes
tified that he hesitated to see if the
driver would turn to the right and,
thinking he was not going to so turn,
ho guided his bicycle to his left Just
as the car was swerved in the same
direction nnd struck him. He admit
ted that he was riding through the
frame of a man's bicycle.
Preceding Mr. Phay, his sister-in-law,
Mrs. Douglas Phay, was called
but her testimony was valuable only
as corroborating Mr. Phay' subse-
quent testimony as to being at the
scene of the accident. She did not
see the collision, she said, her view
being obstructed by the wagons stand
ing along the curb, She did testify
that the auto was traveling at a pret
ty h'gh rate of 'speed.
TcsUrics to Tracks.
J. M. Ferguson was one of the wit
nesses of the plaintiff called to testi
fy as to the tracka and marks on the
pavement. He examined the pave
ment on the day following the acci
dent, he testified, saw a large spot of
blood on the pavement east of th
center line and running about five
feet toward the'east curb. He saw
some auto tracks, apparently coming
from the north and on the east side
of the street, he said, which swerved
sharply to the southwest Just north
of the blood spot. He drew a diagram
show'ng the tracks and the location
of the blood spot.
Deputy Sheriff James H. F.stes was
next called but his testimony did not
prove material. Ho was walking up
Court street with K. V. Corley about
a book from I,ee street when his at
tention was attracted by a woman
apparently excited. He hastened for
ward and saw the buy lying on the
pavement with the occupant of the
car standing around him lie left Im
mediately, however, he aaid in re
sponse to Mr. Thompson's request that
he secure a physio nn. On crust ex
amination he said he did not rem m
ber seeing John Phay but was after
wards told that the woman he first
saw was Mrs. Phay.
E. V. Corley was the last wlt.iexs
before noon and was examined thor
oughly by both sides. His principal
testimony had to do with the trucka
which he said he noticed after has
tening to where the boy lay. He de
clared the car was near or against a
wagon on the right side of the street
with tracks leading from it diagonally
across the street to a point about five
feet from the east curb where thev
straightened and ran parallel with the
curb In a northely direction. The
tracks where they turned Just before
reaching the point of the accident, he
said, were heavy and more discernible
it being hi presumption that the
brake had made the wheels slide.
On crosa-examlnation, Col. Raley
tried to establish that the witnesses
had been making diagram among
themselves In order to make their
testimony correspond.
Tliompfton Firm witness.
Judge Bennett for the plaintiff
prang a surprise late yesterday aft
ernoon when he called as hi first
witness none other than W. L.
Thompson, the defendant. He re
quired the witness to describe the
course of his car from the time It
left the McComa home on Lewis
street until the collision occurred.'
The most notable part of Mr. Thomp
son' testimony was his declaration
mat his automobile was stopped when
the collision occurred, a statement
that is In striking contradiction to
the contention of the plaintiff that
the machine was traveling at a rate
exceeding the speed limit of 15 miles
per hour.
Mr. Thompson staled that he and
Ms wife and son had taken dinner
with Mr. and Mrs. McComas on the
evening of July 23, 1914, and that,
between :30 and 7 left the house,
he driving the car, Mr. McComa.i sit
ting at his right, Mrs. McComas di
rectly back of him and Mrs. Thomp
son in the rear seat with Mrs. Mc
Comas. His son Edward, he said,
was standing on the right hand run
ning board. His intention was, he
said, to drive from Lee street into
Alta and down Alta to the Alta the
ater where his eon was to stop.
In turning from Lewi street Into
Lee street, he said he drove about to
tne center of the Intersection before
making the turn, doing this because
of the presence of a rick of wood
along the west line of Lee street
which shut off his view. He did this
as a precaution against colliding with
any vehicle that might be coming
up Lee street behind the woodpile
he said.
After turning Into Lee street, Mr.
Thompson tectlfied, he guided' his
car to the right hand side and pro
ceeded until near the Intersection
with Court when he was obliged to
turn a little to the left in order to
avoid two Warren, Construction Co.
wagons that were standing on the
right hand side of the street. He
turned out about 25 feet from the
tongue of the first wagon, he testi
fied and Just as he did so noticed the
boy coming toward him, riding
inrougn tne frame of a mans bicy
cie. jie did not see the boy
irom Court street but presumed he
had come down that street from the
east.
Immediately that he noticed the boy
making straight for his car. Mr.
Thompson said he threw his machine
out of gear, applied the brakes and
steered his car to the right until he
ran Into the first of the two wagons.
Almost at the same time that he
struck the wagon, he said, the bicy
cle struck his car, the front wheel
smiting ine uumper in iront aoout a
foot or less from the left end. The
force of the collision made the bi
cycle rebound backward, he said, be
fore the boy fell to the pavement.
Where the boy struck, he said was
Just a few inches beyond the center
of the street.
Judge Bennett obliged the witness
to go into detail in describing his
movements, being especially insistent
In his requests for distances. Mr.

The Ladies' Store
t
Tfiompson declared that at no time
was any part of his car beyond the'
center of Lee street and he was eare-j
ful in all hla answers to deny that his!
car collided with the bicycle.
"You say you had turned your carl
to the right when It struck the bi
cycle?" Judge Bennett asked, and
Mr. Thompson answered, "My car
had Just come to a stop when the bi
cycle struck It"
Mr. Thompson declared that the
boy, riding through the .frame, rode!
In a wobbly manner and apparently
did not have full control of it. The
boy was headed straight for him. he
said, and he did his best to avoid the'
collision, even to the point of run
ning his machine into the wagon.
Judge Bennett Inquired whether or
not the pavement was soft on that
day and whether or not the wheels
of the car had cut Into the pavement1
when it was stopped suddenly. Mr.
turn! Thompson answered that the pave-i
ment might have been a little soft!
but that his car did not cut Into it
as it was not going fast enough when1
the brakes were applied. Fredericks
Steiwer cross-examined the witness, !
leading him over the same ground:
and causing him to explain more ful-'
ly the happenings Just previous to;
the accident. j
OiH-nlng Arguments. i
The Jury was secured about 3:30j
and the opening arguments made,!
Judge Bennett and Colonel Raley ad-
dressing the Jury. Judge Bennett!
read the complaint In the case and
declared the plaintiff would prove by1
reliable witnesses that the defendant'
was driving on the left hand side of1
the street, was driving faster than1
15 miles an hour and was solely re-:
sponsible for the collision. Col. Ra-
ley stated that the evidence would
show that the defendant was driving
slowly, with care and circumspection,
