^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.
