Cruickshank,\ said: "It seems to me that' the statement of the driver) Day, that he fell asleep at the wheel is the onlyj probable explanation. The accident all happened in a flash. I dont think Day- can be held blameworthy, but' so, as not to tie the hands of the" police, I will return an open verdict 'that the deceased was killed through being thrown through the .windshield of 'a .call driven by Day when it struck a poWeff; pole." . ■'■ .■■ -.-.■ -.. • -■'". v.- ;/
