But--well, there was no "terrible accident" to be reported.

Most fortunately a pile of rocks had been accumulated for the purpose of building a parapet wall, and on to the top of this pile the car jumped and lodged, without even turning over.

The jar and shock were bad enough, but no one was much hurt.

It reminded me of another occasion when I got a jar of a different kind.

Once, after playing golf with a man in America, he offered to drive me to town in his motor-car.
