Had the concrete wall been continuous he would have been crushed to death. Had he hit the acetylene equipment it might have blown everything to bits, or burned us out.” “It had apparently got in gear somehow and shot forth like an ar- row without warning,” said Mr. Wat- son. “It smashed its way through the work benches, just missed load- ed acetylene cylinders, and went through the end of the garage. It stalled when the front part got out- side. I thought he must have been crushed to jelly, but when I got to the end of the garage Shannon was sandwiched in the front beside the fender and was still conscious. We rolled him out, and called Dr. Gar- net McLean, who had him removed to the Toronto Western hospital in a. car.” Shannon suffered back and inter- nal injuries, Dr. McLean stated to- day, after an X-ray examination. He is a married man with children and a well-known member of Woodbridge council. Leaving his truck in for repairs, Shannon went out for an hour or so and returned about 8 p.m. to take it out, according to John Watson, pro- prietor of the garage. When Councillor Cecil Shannon of Wood'bridge cranked his ,large oil truck‘in Watson's garage Tuesday night, he discovered it was in gear after it had plunged through the gar- age wall with him on the front. The truck smashed through a work bench, scattered tools, removed the wall from the rest of the garage and fin- ally stalled outside the garage with Shannon and part of the wall rest- ing on the front of the radiator. Shannon was removed to Toronto Western hospital, where his condition is reported as fair to-day.
