Contrary to the expectations of all

was issued Tuesday from the office

Mr. DeWitt will be given a prelim-
inary hearing before Justice of the
Peace D. W. Hagshaw of Jackson-
.ville, and If the Justice court fails
to substantiate the findings of the
coroner s court, he again will he
given aaj untainted freedom or tn
accidental death. If not, he will be
bound over to the grand Jury.
While the evidence of the eight wlt-
nesses last Monday, taken as facts.
and court records are sworn facts,
the evidence is decldely against Mr

which was struck. According to
other testimony, Mr. DeW'llt was
seeking to pass to the right of the
Hudson when he did see It. and in
: doing so struck the taut line which

Mrs. Evans, who wa. standing Willi
Mrs. Jennings just before the latter
was struck, jumped hi the left side
of the Hudson, which was on the
pavement side. One potm which was
overlooked by all, was that if the
accident had not happened as It did.
Und Mr. DeWitt had turned to th-
left, which would have been unlaw
ful. it would undoul.tedly have ant
a narrow escape for Mrs. Evans or
possible death
Another point iu the process of
fixing the blame was the overlooking
of the fact that one auto blocked the
., ('t a
highway, and the uopronch on the
taut chain which was pulling on tho
Nash car.
