MOTOR OVER BANK.
OCCUPANTS PINNED UNDER CAR. M.P. SERIOUSLY INJURED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Gisborne, Last Night. As a result of a motor accident Mr. K. S. Williams, M.P., is now lying in a private hospital at Gisborne suffering from Rome what serious injuries, though no examination has yet been made. Mr. Williams returned from the session the previous night and left early this afternoon for his home at Matahiia, near Ruatorea, East Coast. The car contained five occupants, Mr. Williams, Mr. C. M. Sargisson (accountant at the Bank of New South Wales at Gisborne), Mr. A. Wright (driver), Mr. Williams’ son, and a youth named Ricketts. Near the top of Rototahi hill, a few miles this side of Tolaga Bay, Mr. Williams’ car met on a sharp bend a car coming from the north. Both cars swerved to avoid a collision, but came in contact. Mr. Williams’ car went over a bank, falling twenty feet and turning over two or three times before being pulled up by a fence. Messrs. Williams, Sargisson and Wright were pinned under the car. An ambulance went out and returned late to-night with the injured.
