A motor car adventure occurred m the Ta rat alii road, opposite Mr Pay's residence on Tuesday afternoon. It appears that Mr and Mrs Foreman, of Alixedton, were returning to Carterton from iMasterton. and when m close proximity to the corner o: White's Line intersection with the high way j Mr Foreman .steered to one side to avoid an approaching trap, and in some unaccountable way the .wheels twisted to the full lock and the car overturned, throwing the occupants to the ground. Both of them were bruised and shaken, and Dr Gunn was sent for. Mrs Foreman was removed to Nurse Whitehorn's private hospital, where she received skilled attention.
