There were no witnesses to the acci- ent,, but two small boys heard the crash and ran to the scene. The auto- mobile was submerged in 14 feet of water. ‘The bodies were discovered floating by some logs near the bridge. Physicians, who examined the bodies, which were badly crushed, expressed the opinion that the two were killed outright | in the crash, instead of being drowned. The automobile was an open model.
