dimly in the vague mist which rises there at night: It was a nice, cool night for July. Insects hummed in the grass and bushes. On Road 31, glaring headlights swept by on the northbound lane. ”. » » “WHY, HE came here about four ‘months ago--walt, it was March 24,” sald Michael A. McGrath, coowner of Mac's barber shop. Mr, McGrath looked at the empty barber chair, . “He was a good man,” he said. “He did his work and didn't say a whole lot. Customers liked him and some of his regulars would sit down and wait until he got here to have their hair cut. “He came to work at-10 in the morning and he would leave at 10 at night, That's when he left—at 10 last night.” »y . » AS MR. Austin walked along the road, he looked up at the corner house, the one where his sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Mr. and
Mrs. Daniel Kessler, live. Mrs, Kessler was awake, but Mr, Austin didn't stop.
He approached the intersection Where the smell of oil and gasoline
fumes hung heavy in the chill night air. There was a light on ii his own bungalow across the street. His son, Gene, 15, would be home, His wife, Flora, woudl be waiting a

“They say he walked into’ the {back end of the truck, but I don't {know how,” Mr, Austin’s son said. “My aunt, Mrs, Kessler, who lives picked up by the city dog catcher, on the corner, ran over and called |
us to come, Dad was hurt |. “Mother went. [finally came, They sald it was too late then.” Gene goes to Bouthport high | school, ” During the summer, he works on a farm off Madison ave. He likes farm working. “I guess I'll just keep on working,” he sald. “We were pretty close, Dad and me, 1 guess.” There were tears in his eyes, but=he kept 6n talking. “Mother went uptown with my aunt to see about . . . it. Mother usually works, but she’s not working today.” » » » MR. AUSTIN bled to death after the truck struck him, the police report said, A wide bloodstain had dried on the northbound lane, brown against the white concréte. Vehicle tires had tracked it north for 50 yards.
