Raymond of Norwich, Who was concerned in a fatal acei- | Mr. Raymond testified that he was driving a truck rather near the| curb on West Thames street and two men jumped on the running board for a ride. He did not invite them aboard. One of the men was struck by a pole as the truck passed near ‘the curb and was killed. A hearing was held by the coroner and Mr. Raymend was exonerated from blame. Commissioner Stoeckel returned his operator’s li- cense to him when he had concluded questioning him. George L. Raymond of Waterford was the next presented. Raymond was concerned in an accident on Main street, this city, having struck a wo- man who was crossing the sireet. Charles B. Tinker testified that he saw the accident and did not consider Mr. Raymond to blame, as he was not driving fast and the woman turned to go_back. Mr. Raymong was called to the stand and he placed his hand back of his ear 50 he could hear the questions of the cemmissioner. The commissioner told Mr. Raymond that he might retain his license for the present and he would look up the ap- plication and see what reply Mr. Ray- mond made to the question about deaf- ness. J. H. Carvill of Poquonoc Bridge was charged with having crowded M. P. Loper of Stonington from the road on Fort Mill. Mr. Loper made writ- ten_complaipt to the commissioner. Mr. Loper testified that Mr. Carvill came up back of him at a furious rate of speed and without blowing his hern. He crowded him to the right of. the road and cut in in front of him so that he had to use both brakes in order to stop his ear to prevent a collision. Mr. Carvill made a counter charge that Loper swung to the left just as he was about to pass him and he blew several times for him to get over to the right.
