^Father Testifies for and Against Girl His Car Hit Driver Says His Truck Struck Daughter While Turning Corner—She Charges Speeding. S, D. Peterson, 1153 North Nine teenth street, appeared in District .fudge Ueslie's court yesterday after noon and testified both for and against'his daughter, Rosa C. Peter son, 2'.’, who is suing the Troy laundry for $5,000 damages she alleges she re reived when struck by a truck. Peterson, the father, was driving the truck which struck her. He testified that he had cut a corner in making a turn at Klghteenth and Cuming ■streets, which perhaps will establish the liability of the company for which he was working. Later attorneys for the company • ailed him to the stand and questioned him regarding statements he had made previously which tended to weaken his daughter's case, reterson is still an employe of the laundry. Peterson told of his mental anguish caused by the accident. The daugh ter testified that the accident, which occurred July 28, 1922, was due to the fact that the truck was being driven ht a high rate of speed. She said that she had started into the street to get n a street car when she was hit by the automobile and knocked uncon scious. Miss Peterson wept while telling of the accident. She had been employed by the Union Pacific railroad. Her petition alleges she is permanently In jured.
