Wire-Hawser Across Main Road Disputed Obstruction Case

Mrs Freda Scott testified a truck and a mobile crane were present, and the car behind braked sharply, hitting the wire. Both defendants denied placing the wire, each blaming the other, and the magistrate dismissed the case for lack of evidence.
