Accident02
Upset
The
milk wagon of Lars Larson was struck by a street car on the hill near Mrs.
West’s Wednesday morning. The wagon was
over-turned and quite badly broken up and the cans and bottles destroyed. The horse escaped injury and the driver was
not badly injured. The driver did not
hear the gong because of the rattling of the cans and the motorman expected the
car to clear the wagon. However he should have put on the brakes so as to have
had the car more nearly under control.
Delivery wagons have to use the strip between the track and the walk
which is rather narrow and makes such accidents probably.
