The

Mr.

said,
was
sadder
than
many
ior
a

along
Fifth

Fast
when
he
saw

ahead.
He
drove

and
one
of
the
children,
in
an
apparent
effort
lo
cross
the
street
is
was
its
right,
got
in
Ihe
way
of
the
car
and
was
struck.
The
injuries
proved
fatal
and
il
died
a

afterwards.
The

would
indicate
that
accused
hail
hud
the
opportunity
to
see
Ihe
children
some
lime
before
he
arrived
where
they
were.
F.vidcnce
would
al.o
be
adduced
to
show
that,
not
only
was
there
a
view
of
considerable
length,

that
the

should
have
been
