Automobile Editor: . , , You will no doubt recall the talk we bad some little . time ago In which. . I told you about the Big Pilot Fifty-five owned by J. A Washington of Logan, West Virginia, that took a drop of over fifteen feet off of -one of West Virginia's mountain trails and came through without injury to either car or passengers. The Incident as. I gave it to you was - related to me . by Mr. Washington himself, who was driving the car at the time. Subsequently, you published this interview in the Palladium under date, of 8ept. 25. Quite a number of times since,' both Mr. Seidel and myself have been questioned regarding the authenticity , of the tale considerable doubt as to its truth being both Implied. and express ed. " For this lack of faith I can scarcely blame your readers. That a big six cylinder motor car' carrying tour people could shoot off the road, out into space, and drop fifteen feet " without harm to any of the passengers and with no injury to the car itself that even our expert mechanics could discover, on the fact of it seems impossible. ..,.... Expresses His Doubt. ' Frankly, when Mr. Washington told me about it, I never doubted him for a moment. . I know Mr. Washington. Your readers, however,, who have not had the pleasure of meeting this frank and courteous southern gentleman, were compelled - to judge the story from cold type and printer's ink alone. The implied and expressed doubts mentioned above, although given' good naturedly, impelled me to write - Mr. Washington for his personal affidavit
LECTURE ON GRAPEFRUIT.
A free lecture and demonstration on grapefruit will be given Saturday evening and Monday and Tuesday at the H cosier Store. Mr. Fisher, who has : the lecture In charge, has made a great study of this fruit and will tell . of its origin and habits. More important than this, he will show, the people how to prepare and eat grapefruit. Mr. Fisher's lectures are "most interesting and' well worth hearing and be Is an expert on this fruit, having made a study of it since it .was brought to this country from China and Japan by the early settlers of the peninsula of Florida. Adv.
which I did . under date ' of October 5. . , . Oct. 5, 1915. i ' On October '8th, I. received the following reply from Mr. Washington: Logan, W. Va., Oct. th, 191S, "The Pilot Motor Car Co - Richmond, Ind. , : , . . ' Gentlemen: . . - c "I am in receipt of your letter of the 6th asking me to make affidavit to the truth of the article that appeared In . the motor news as to my : car making a 15 foot drop over the mountain side without injury either to car or occupants, 'v;V; ' : - v ' "It happened very much as stated, the turn being too sharp to permit the -car making the turn and stay on the road. And over we went, too quickly for. anyone' to jump , or guess , at what was going to happen, and we landed on all four wheels, - much to our surprise.. . , , "When T round "the . car had "not
been damaged, I: let the -ear roll on
down the bank, to . a place . where it was not ' so steep and then turned and proceeded to run on out at the north of the ravine and into the road again. "And from that time on, I have been a booster as to the general sturdiness tf th Pilot Car. And it still is in good ' order. '-" rThe above is . correct and a worn to before . L. G. Burns, Notary Public, Logan, W. Va. My commission expires July 10, 1922 the article as published. . Very truly yours, (Signed) . ' J. A. Washington. (Seal) 10-6-15. "The foregoing will, I think, dispel all doubts as to the truthfulness of Very truly yours, ' PILOT MOTOR CAR CO. (Signed) - Jos. W. Conner, . : Sales Manager.
