4 LAVI photography. Expresses His Regret Over Auto Accident To the Editor of The Palladium. Dear Sir Through the columns of your paper I want to express my sincere regret as to the automobile accident which resulted in the injury of Rosemary Jenkins. While I feel that I am in no way responsible for this most regrettable accident, yet I feel that it Is due the public that I make some statement. I was running at a moderate rate of peed and not at a rapid rate as rumored. The little girl came running across the street and ran directly in front of my machine before I 'could stop it. The witnesses who saw this accident, so far as I know, all agree that it was not my fault but was a pure accident and unavoidable, and the prosecuting attorney has also investigated the matter and finds that the above statement is true. Sincerely yours, RAYMOND JONES. 187 Regular Soldiers Drill on Main Street Richmond pedestrians viewed 187 regular soldiers in drill, Thursday at noon. The men left the train at the station and marched up Tenth street to Main and then west on Main. These men were detained in a hospital and were not able to leave with their comrades for France.
