Fara, Auto ACCIDENT 
Charles Briechle, a young man of 
about I9 years, employed as second 
butler in the family of W. J. Board- 
man of Washington, whose summer 
home is off School street, Manchester, 
was run into while riding a bicycle last 
Monday afternoon on the West Man- 
chester road, near the J. L. Thorn- 
dike estate, by an automobile owned 
by Daniel Dullivan of Boston, and 
driven by Henry F. Nolan, the chau- 
ffeur. In the car at the time were 
Mrs. Sullivan and one of her daugh- 
ters. ‘They were coming from the di- 
rection of Beverly Farms, to their 
summer home at the Schofield cottage, 
Manchester. 
Nolan stopped his car within a few 
feet of where he struck and passed 
over the unfortunate young man. He 
picked him up and hurried to the vil- 
lage, to the office of Dr. G. W. Blais- 
dell. Officer Bullock boarded the car 
in the square, and when they reached 
the doctor’s Chief Sullivan was there 
and helped carry the victim into the 
office. Dr. Blaisdell did all he could, but 
the body was apparently fatally crush- 
ed about the chest. He died at 6.20, 
little less than an hour after being 
struck. He was sufficiently conscious 
to be able to tell his name to the Chief. 
It appears that Briechle had bee in 
this country about two years. Hhe had 
no relatives here, his native home be- 
ing Paris. He was with the family 
of Senator Wilcox in Wasnington the 
last winter, but as they have no second 
man during the summer he was let out 
to the Boardman family. He had gone 
to Beverly Farms Monday afternoon 
on a bicycle which he had hired that 
afternoon for the summer, to visit his 
friend, Alfred Diociaiuti, butler for 
the Henry Mays. of Washington. 
They went in swimming at West 
Beach, t 5.154 theyeparted and 
Briechle started on his wheel for home. 
He intended to visit another French 
butler at the T. Dennie Boardman 
house, and it is thought that while 
he was looking about for the avenue 
he was struck by the auto.
