The coroncrs verdict in full fol-
lows:

"The undersigned. Coroner.

and Mary U'l)onahue. white females.
35 and 27 years old rcspcctively. late
of the town of Stamford. the former
having died a. violent. sudden and no.

on April 12. 1923. and the latter an
untimely death at the Stamford Hos-
pital on April 13. 1923. having made
immediate inquiry concerning their
deaths do hereby certify that said
Harriet Byrnc-s and Mary O‘Donohue
died as above on the dates specified.
each from a fracture
the skull.

"Evidence tnkcn showed that about
11:15 p. m..
westerly to-
ward their respective homes along the
right (north) side. of the concrete
pavement on Maple Avenue near the
Dyer residence. Glenbrook. Dari-In.
they were struck and fatally injured
. by a. west bound passenger bus and so
lllJlll‘tlil they died as shown.

"The bus (\Vhite) No. J. 13. owned
by the Connecticut Company. was be-
ing driven by Orlo Waterbury. of 17
Clinton Avenue. Stamford. under opt-r-

ntor's license No. 52400 and P. S. 578
‘22! the time of injury.
"The concrete pavement at. and

about the place of injury is construct-
ed along the center of the Avenue and
is about 18 feet in width.

“A convenient cement and other
,t-ompOsItion sidewalk of about 4 feet
in width runs parallel to the pavement
along the north side of the Avenue at
and about the place of injury.

"It appeared both deceased. under
the escort of one John J. Brown. chose
to walk along the pavement rather
tnah the sidewalk. both walking
abreast near the right (north) side.
Brown walking about 15 feet behind
near the north edge of such pavement.

“The injuring bus. in nearing the
deceased persons and escort at the
place of injury. was running from 20
to 25 miles per hour with right side
wheels about 3 feet distant from the
north edge of the pavement with
headlights operating and brake equip-
ment in good order.

"As the bus neared both deceased
an east bound automobile owned by
one Taylor. with headlights glowing.
running about 15 miles per hour along
the south side of the pavement ap-
proached and passed said deceased.

"Immediately after so passing. the
automobile passed the bus at a point

east of and behind said deceased.
when almost instantly after such pass-
ing the bus crashed against them. as
they were walking. so injuring them

' they died as shown.

"The evidence showed the bus safe-
ly passed Escort ilrown. then walking
near the north edge of the pavement
lefore striking the ladies. the latter
evidently walking nearer the center of
the highway than Brown. but directly
in the path of the bus. It also show-
ed. despite the instant braking of the
bus by its driver. the machine ran 131
feet beyond the point of collision be-
fore stopping.

“The place of injury was somewhat
dark the same being about equi—dis-
tant between two public incandescent.
lights about 750 feet apart.

"The testimony of Driver Water-
bury showed he failed to discover the
said deceased or escort or give warn-

ing of his coming to either because of
blindness caused by the headlight
glare of the approaching Taylor ma-
chine. for such a period of tune as
permitted the bus to travel to a point
about 15 feet distant from the place of
injury. when despite instant effort by
him to stop the machine he collided
with and so 1W both deceased
they died as shown.

\Vatcrbury was taken to Daricn yesterday afternoon in custody

Shaughncssy of that place. He

will be formally charged with manslaughter at a hearing before
Judge Scllcek, in the llarien (‘ourt at 4 o‘clock this afternoon.

thorities. (IVS‘liit‘ persistent endeavor
to discoxcr an efficient remidy have
lr.ot as vet boon succusful in provid-
iIng such ci‘t‘cctiie lights for automo-
llillcs as will ensure a. material reduc-
tion if not a (mention of highway In-
ljurics. It is to be hoped. however.
that at no distant day. an efficient
- remedy may be devised to correct the
lmist hicf indicated
' ‘In the matter of the use of high-

walks are provided or where the
pi destrlan choosm to use the highway
pavement rather than the sidewalk. it
may not be improper it this time to

suggest to the. highway authorities of
the state, in an endcavor to save life
and limb. that detlnite instructions or
warning admonitions be given to
pedestrians. by the placing of placards
or notices on poles. trees or fences or
otherwise on much travclcd highways.
showing that In the interest of public
cafcty. foot passcngcrs should or
ought to walk on the left side of the
highway against the currcni or traffic.
rather than court injury by walking
{on the right side of the roadway in
jeopardy or life or limb from vehicu-
lar traffic traveling behind them.

“In the case at hand. however. I am
of opinion. in view of all thc testimony
inclusive of. but. despite that apparent-
ly showing the unexpected presence of
both dcccased on the higlmay pmc—
nInit instead of the side“ all; and don-
p. to the handicap of impaiud viaion
frcm headlight glare. claimed by Dr“-
.er “'aterhury. that the latter was lav.
inefficient and negligent in falling or
attempting in a timely way to reduce
the speed of his car in the presence of

he approached the headlights of the
oncoming Taylor automobile.

“Assuming it be the law that loot
passengers in the exercise of their
highway right of travel can or may
occupy the highway at any time or
place and that it is one of the prime
duties of auto drivers to be vigilant
and watchful for their safety. I am of
btllef that had Waterbury. having ex-
prricnce of the effect of headlight
glare upon his eyesight. exercised roa-
v sonablc and expected care and control
of his bus by reducing its speed as he
approached the Taylor headlights
from a point one hundred and fifty or
more feet distant his impaired vision
would have become normal again and
the available road space between bus
and victims sufficient to ensure their
safety by the prompt operation of the
known to be adequate and test proven
'brakes of the machine.

"I therefore find that both deceased
came to their deaths at the time. place
and from the same cause shown as the
result of the criminal act of Orlo Wa-
terbury. of Stamford. Connecticut.

"A copy hereof is" transmitted to
State Attorney Cummings, of Stam-
ford. Prosecuting Attorney Keneally.

nessy of Dar-ten. for such action as is
by law provided.
