lye witnesses to the accident saw
Ir. Horstick signal with his hand
that he was going to turn.
Miss Buckwalter riding in the
same direction as the truck was
fraveling, evidently did not see Mr.
Horstick’s signal and was about to
bass the truck on the left side. As
she turned to her left of the police-
an, Mr. Horstick also turned, and
the front of the truck knocked the
cyclist down, the front wheel passing
over her head, crushing her skull and
fracturing her jaw. Mr. Horstick
stopped the truck before the rear
wheels reached the unfortunate girl.
The body was taken from beneath
the truck by Dr. W. M. Thome, re-
moved to her home and later to the
undertaking parlors of Mr. H. C.
Brunner. Death was instantaneous.
