Auto Turns Turtle
Dr. Homer E. Jamieson and wife of Millburn on last Friday afternoon
were the victims of an auto accident which fortunately did not result
in serious injury to either of the occupants of the car, although
their experience was one which they do not care to repeat.
As they were driving along the road at a point about three miles east
of Millburn, a dog ran into the road and began barking and jumping at
the machine, the doctor tried to avoid running over the animal but it
suddenly leaped squarely in the path of the car. As the wheels
struck the body the machine swerved from the highway and before the
occupants realized their danger it had turned turtle in the
ditch.
Both Dr. and Mrs. Jamieson were thrown clear of the car and neither
received injuries other than a few bruises. The machine was not
damaged to any extent and after it was once more righted the doctor
was able to return home with it. At the present time they are
congratulating themselves upon the fortunate ending of the affair.
