In the wind and rain storm which raged yesterday afternoon a small son of Mr and Mrs G. Stark stepped off the footpath in front of the Marquis Hotel: He had his head down against the storm and walked almost in front of an oncoming Army service bus. The child was not noticed by the driver until he was almost upon him. The driver applied his brakes and swerved the vehicle to one side but the boy was hit by the mudguard. He was taken into Mr Lenihan’s boot shop where it was found he was not seriously hurt. REGENT THEATRE “THE LADY EVE."
