Roushar v. Dixon

The accident happened on a dirt road, near the crest of two steep hills, a short time before noon on July 23, 1940. Plaintiff’s intestate, Reverend Robert Rubart, was taking some children to their homes in his automobile after attending a Bible class. In the front seat with Mr. Rubart were three children, ages 7, 5, and 4, and Margie Lyman, 14 years old, a witness for plaintiff, was in the back seat.

Walter Kahler, driver of defendant’s truck, was approaching the crest from the south and Mr. Rubart was approaching from the north. The collision occurred about 25 feet north of the crest.
