Hunt of Essex, owner of an automobile, is the -defendant in a suit brought against him for $10,000 dam- ages for the death of Frederick Mur- ray Way, a minor, in an automobile ac- cident at Old Saybrook. Trial of the suit was begun before Judge John W. Banks and a jury in the superior court at New London, Tuesday morning. The plaintift is Henry H. Black of South Lyme, ad- ministrator of the estaté of the Way bo: The accident happened on February 3, 1920 on what is known as the Essex road in the town of Old Saybrook. It is claimed that on the day in ques- tion, the Way boy was walking on the highway near the southerly intersection of the Lyme road and the Essex road in Old Saybrook going in the direction of Essex when at,a point between the hous es owned by -John Dante and Miss Clin- ton, the Hunt automobile struck him. The plaintiff alleges that the automobike was unlawfully driven’ by Frederick H. Hall, a boy of 15 years old or less, and that he was incompetent and an inex- perienced driver ; that he was driving the machine recklessly, negiigertly and care- lessly and at a high rate of speed when the Way boy was struck and re- ceived injuries from whicih he died with- in a short time. The defence makes a general denial of the charges of the crmplaint. The following jury was selected to try the case: Latham Avery, Henry Bridgham and William Bishop of Gro- ton; Fernando Wheeler, John C. Crad- dock, Joseph Chesbro, William D. Beck- with and Ebenezer Morgan of Stonington ; Matt A. Tinker of Montville; Alba A. Gray of Ledvard and Fred Perry and Ezra Hempstead of Waterford. After the jury had been empanelled Attorney P. W. Chuse of New Haven, counsel for the defendant, asked that the jupry be excused in order that he might make a statement, and the re- quest was granted, Attorney Chase then called the attention of the court to what he considered lack of juris- diction of the court in the case. He declared that, inasmuch as the acci- dent happened iin Saybrook; that the defendant was a resident of Essex anl that the property attached was locat- ed in Middlesex county and that the plaintiff was merely a creature of the SUT FOR $10,000 IS ON TRIAL probate court, and the mere fact, that he resided in New London county, he thought that the gurt had no juris- diction in the case. Attorney ‘Frank L. McGuire, repre- senting the plaintiff, declared that there matter, He stated that in a transitory action, the law. provided that either the plaintift or the defendant could reside in the county. In this case, the plaintiff is a resident of New Iondon county and jufsdictifon is not effected by the fact the distributees of the estate live else- where. The legal title,rested in the ad- ministrator and inasmuch as he is a res- ident of the county, the case is Within the jurisdiction of the superioir court of New London county. Judge Banks denied the motion of the defendant, holding that the case was within the jurisdiction cf New London and the trial was started. Harry T. Griswold of a firm of New London architects was called to the stand as the first witness and he explained a map of the scene of the accldent and de- scribed the highway, location of the houses and other places near the scene of the fatality. The witness testified that he made the map Monday . Dr. Irwin Granniss of Old Saybrook testified that he remembered the fact that the Way boy was brought to his office after the. automobile accident but that he was not in his office at the time, When he arrived a short time afterwards the Way boy was dead and Mr. Hunt and the Hall boy weré with the body. The physician was unabl state what the injuries were W] caused the boy's death but Attorneys McGuire and Chase agreed that Dr. Granniss might telephone a description of the injuries for admission as evi- dence. George K. Crandall, civil engineer of New London, was called to the stand as a witness for the defense and he also de- scribed a map of the highway and the scene of the acident! Mr. Crandall stat- ed that he started to make the measure- ments soon after the accident last Feb- ruary, but was interrupted on account of the weather and he finished them in April. The trial will be® ocontinued today (Wednesday).

In 1920 pay stations b was no question about the law in the! and measured service stations gave revenue of a bit more than $800,000 to the company.

Wita pathetic fre- Guency, the victim of the acculent is someone who cannot afford the doctor's | bills and the loss of time, or somecne whose family are made’ indigent by the disability or death of the breadwinner.

The New York law would requirs th insurance he taken out before license is granted and the car registered. The in- surance would be similar to workingman's compensation.
