Approaching the scene of the accident. Wootton continued, he had seen the light of a moving car approaching from Bulls some distance away v . After the accident he was very upset. He did not remember what Joseph Poutama, a passenger in the other car, said to him. Iu reply to Mr. O’Leary, Wootton said that the hole in the road referred to in evidence by Constable F. Turvey. would not mark where the wheel of j Blunden’s truck had stood, but would be caused by the rim digging in after the truck was lifted by the impact. Tho only explanation he could give of not seeing the truck was that it was neutralised against the background of trees and the lights of the approaching car. After getting the police and a doctor, he secured another car and drove to Trentham from Marton to report in camp. The jury, after retiring for three hours and 15 minutes, acquitted accused, as stated.
