In the report of a motoring mishap at Caerwent early on Monday morning, when Albert ELLDRICH, Capel-street, Newport, was killed and two other men seriously injured, it was stated that a taxi, which crashed into the stay of a telegraph pole, was driven by Mr. A. BURLEIGH. This was not so, and the car-not a taxi-was only owned by Mr. BURLEIGH. A sequel to a Sunday night accident on the St. Fagan's-road near Glanely Hospital was heard in the Cardiff Stipendiary's Court on Tuesday. William HARRINGTON, colliery clerk, of Blaina, was summoned for negligently motor cycling on April 11. Mr. R. BOOTH prosecuted.
