lev state of the street, the hind end OF
the wagon slipped round and over the
grade. The wagon turned completely
over sideways, dumping the load hand.
somely in the snow rs il did so, n
away it went down the steep bank some
forty or fifty yards, lodging in the deep
drifted sonw, from which it was quite a
lob to e1tricate it this morning. The
mules we're all dragged over and down
the bank, but the snow prevented either
they or the wagon from being at all
injured. The teams;er escaped by
getting out of the way in time. He
had to jump round mighty lively to do
so.
