                                            Well, I have driven back and forth with Mr Smith from the latter part of August.  A week ago last Monday  i was going home, and going across number    road, there was a fellow with slabs uoustrike our way, and I  thought we were going to run into it.  Mr Smith sounded the horn and didn't give the man in the wagon time enough to get out of the way.  He applied the footbrakes, but they didn't work.  I though he was going to catch the rig right and everybody  went to one side inside.  A wile before he was killed I was going over the bridge,ti was very light and in coming over in the car, he was going about twently-five miles an hour.  I thought,if the span was open,-and I looked up to see it the green light was showing and it was, and he ha d the little red  
light too. One night I rodewith him I could perfectly see anything at this side.
