On a good road about two miles from the village he lost control of the little machine and it bounced off the road and alighted in the ditch. The driver suffered only bruises. The couple had been married about four years, Lindquist’s first wife having died. Lindquist has two sons, Walter Lindquist, a mail carrier here, and Dr.„ T. E. Lindquist of South Bend.
