Reed presiding, the case of Rensellier A. Hathaway of Summit, R. I, vs. Dr. 1. N. Perreault of Danielson was on trial, Brown & Perking of Norwich representing the plaintiff and Attorney Oliver E. Getty of Danielson the defendant. The suit against the Danielson phy- sician grew out of an accident that ocecurred mear Summit July 17, 1t Driving his automebile, Dr. Perreauit <crashed into a vehicle in which Hath- away was sitting. Hathaway was thrown out and suffered injuries of a somewhat eerious nature, it was al- leged, a bone in his ankle being, frac- tured and the flesh torn from one thumb. Hathaway’s horse was in- jured and his vehicle smashed. Dr. Perreault was on his way from Providence to Danielson when the ac- cident occurred and was traveling alone. All of the evidence submitte: by the defense was given by Dr. Per- reault. According to the evidence froma both sides, Mr. Hathaway had stopped his horse to talk with a man who was sitting in another vehicle and the two vehicles somewhat obstructed the highway, so that Dr. Perreault, who said that he sounded signals of his approach, was unable to get past, and the collision occurred, although - the doctor submitted that he had used due care in the operation of his macnine. Mr. Hathaway testified that Dr. Per- reault had offered assistance to him after the accident, but that he had re- fused it. The plaintiff claimed that the ve- hicles that the defendant claimed were obstructing the highway were about 120 ‘oot apart when the accident oc- curred. Under a Rhode Island statute all vehicles approaching other vehicles from the rear are required to pass to the left, but on account of the posi- tions of the two teams, which the de- fendant claimed prevented any possi- Dbility of his pessing them on that side of the highway, he tried to pass on the right hand side. The plaintiff’ attorneys based their first count in the action under that statute. In his charge to the jury Judge Reed, in relation to the statute re- ferred to, pointed out that Dr. Per- reeult, if he had no chance to pass on the left side, necligent because he had turned to the right and tried to pass on that side, if he had previously exercised all neces- sary caution as to signals of his ap- proach, regulation of the speed and centrol of his car. Judge Reed also called the attention of the jury to th: matter of considering whether or ant the plaintiff had not been gullty of contributory negligence in stopping h team in the hi “The plaintiff, said Judge Reed, “must show that he was not guilty of contributory negl!- gence.” The jury was out about a half hour, returning with a verdict for the plaintiff to recover damages of $425. The sult was for $3,000. Resolutions Not Opposed. At the capitol in Hartford Tuesday the Putnam Foundry and Machins company hed two midtters up for a hearing before the commjittee on in- corporations of the general assembly The first was in the nature of a heal- ing act ratifying the increass in cap- ital stock of the company from $35,000 te $75,000. The privilege had been granted to the company at the legis- Jative session of 1801 and the stock had been issued, but the stockholders had never formally accepted the amendment to the charter. The company then asked another resolution fer pewer to in- crease the capital stock from $75,000 to $200,000. It was explained to the committee that in the past four years tne business had increased more than thiee-fold and that at the present time it had borrowed $65,000, which with deterred payments made over $100,000 indebtedness that had been incurred in order to meet the deficlency in tha capital stock necessary to carry on the business. There was no opposi- tion 1o either resolution.
