OCTOBER COURT.
(Continued from tlrst page.)
tried was that of Frauk Sprowl
vs. ihe Chambersburg and Bed
ford Turnpike Road Company
which was taken up Thursday
morning. This was an action
brought by Frank Sprowl for
lamages sustained by reason of
his having been thrown from a
buggy July 1, 11107 on the turn
pike leading up Sideling Hill
mountain west of Saluvia. The
facts developed were substantial
ly as follows : The defendant com
pany was making repeirs to its
road about a mile west of Saluvia.
These repairs were being made
by filling gutters cut in the pike
by traction engines. Defendant
had placed along the pike piles
of stones, and at one place in the
road, for something over a rod,
stones which had been gathered
from the mountain and were, in
some cases as large as a gallon
bucket, and others were as large
as two men could well handle. On
the afternoon of July 1, 1907,
Frank Sprowl, accompanied by
Frank McDaniel, was driving
eastward down the mountain in
in opeu or "runabout" bug'.y.
They arrived at the point where
the stoues had been placed in and
along the pike about 1 o'clock in
the afternoon. Men employed
by the defendant company were
breaking, putting in, and cover
ing the stones. The stones ex
tended along the pike for, per
haps, 200 or more feet. The men
wore working at the west end.
The horse, which was driven by
Mr. McDaniel, passed the men
at work quietly, but became
frightened when he got upon
larger and unbroken stones, and
started to run down the mount
ain, shying at the piles of stone
along the pike, running the bug
gy over a pile near the edge of
the pike, throwing Sprowl and
McDaniel over the embankment,
the buggy falling on top of
Sprowl and pinning him to the
ground. The horse became de
tached and ran down through the
woods and came out on the pike
some distance below. The work
men hastened to the scene of the
accident, aud Mr. DcDaniel, who
had been more fortunate than his
companion, pursued and caught
the horse. The workmen liber
ated Mr. Sprowl from his posi
tion under the buggy, and car
ried him up on to the pike, and
later sent him by the western
stage down to the homo of a Mr.
Deshong where Mr. Sprowl had
been boarding while in the em
ploy of Wilson McDaniel, where
he remained confined to his room
for two weeks. The morning fol
lowing, his family physician at
Everett came to see him, and
found that two ribs had been
torn from the spinal column, and
that he sustained other injuries.
Mr. Sprowl afterward brought
suit against the turnpike com
pany to recover the sum of $ 2000.
The jury, after mature delibera
tion, returned a verdict for $1,220
in favor of Mr. Sprowl as follows:
bill at Deshong's, $15; Docor's
bill, $30; toss of time from labor,
$175, and $1,000 for pain and suffering.
