Former Commissioner Denham In a Bad Spill Tuesday.

Former County Commissioner C. T. Denham had/B bad collision with his Richmond automobile Tuesday afternoon on the hill just north of Remington. He was starting for Rensselaer and Mrs. Denham and another lady were in the car with him. He went to turn around a gravel wagon and bumped head-on into a large tourist automobile that was going south. Neither driver had seen the other ear, owing to the dust. Fortunately neither car was going very fast and the occupants were not thrown out. Mr. Denham’s car suffered the most damage. He had one wheel broken off, a bent axle, the lamps and wind shield mashed and the mudguards bent. The tourist car had a bent mudguard only.
