Then, completely reconciled, she gave them her blessing, bestowed upon them the family heirlooms and de- parted this life in peace. Hope turned now from the inspec- tion of herself in the glass.

One theory is that Mr. Bchultz just before reaching the gates suddenly became aware of the danger and applied the emergency brake, with the result that the auto- mobile skidded and smashed through the gate, turning directly around be- fore it was struck, Car Is Demolished ‘The body of Mies Bchultz, who was on the front seat, was hurled 200 feet, but when picked up she apparently was uninjured except for a deep gash in the head, The entire clothing had heen torn from the body by the im- pact. The automobile, a large seven- passenger touring car, was demolished and the top and cushions were found on the top of the locomotive, Frank Monsell, the gatetender at the crossing, which is a mile and a half south of the Windsor Locks sta- tion, ‘said that he had lowered the gates on the approach of the express and other automobiles were waiting in the road. He asserted he saw the Schultz automobile -coming toward the gates at'a fast rate of speed and it smashed into the south gate, tear- Ing it off the post. - Engineer E. A.
