CARS IN
ONE BADLY DAMAGED DRIVER AND PASSENGER HURT (From Our Otcn Correspondent .) THAMES. To-day. A collision at 3.15 o’clock yesterday between two cars resulted in the driver ot one car, named Herrick, and a lady passenger, Mrs. Robinson, being cut with flying glass. The latter was taken to the hospital. The circumstances are that White’s service car had just left for Auckland with a full load, and the other car, a light Oakland, driven by Herrick, emerged from Grey Street intending to cross Pollen Street, but Whites car hit it fair and square, pushing it sideways across the street right up to the water-trough on the corner. The Oakland suffered considerably. The two back wheels were crumpled up, both sides crushed in, all the running-boards crumpied up, and the windscreen broken. The heavy squeeze between the service car and the watertrough was responsible for some of the damage. The service car had its headlights radiator considerably damaged.
