CYCLIST KILLED
RUN OVER BY CAR By Telegraph— Pres? Association DUNEDIN, August 30. A fatal accident occurred at the corner of Jetty and Princes Streets early yesterday morning, when a motorcyclist, Mackay Robertson Spence, single, residing at Anderson’s Bay, was killed. Spence was crossing the intersection and apparently misjudged the distance and grazed the rear of a car which was passing. He was thrown from the vehicle and before he could regain his feet a second car travelling behind him passed over his body, the wheels going over his neck. He was immediately removed to the hospital, but life was extinct.
