and two young men were riding whose

embankment a short distance north of
the city, landing bottom side up in
twenty feet below.
None of the occupants of the car
were injured o^her than a few scratch-
es and minor bruises. A young lady
Was driving the car at the time and
jt is supposed that she lost control of
the machine. The car' was pulled out
Of the ditch after some hard work,
and other than a broken top and a

R was another one of those fortu-
nate accidents, as a number of pen-
sons who saw the car in the ravine
are still wondering bow an accident
of that.nature could happen without
killing all the occupants. They Were

The bonds were furnished the county

The bonds are lithographed on the
