The body of the car was so badly damaged it was beyond repair. Provincial Con- stable Harold Black investigated and laid a charge of reckless driv- ing. The trial was held this Thurs- dy at Hanover. The expenses of fixing the car and paying for the damaged fence, etc. will amount to considerable over one hundred doll- ar's. The car was towed to McTav- ish's Garage, where another body has been put on and other repairing done. Wei come .
