little Muskingum creek two miles below
Kings mill in Monroe county. He was
coming from Matamoras to his home
with an express wagon and horses when
nearly home he met an awful DEATH
The night was very dark and it is. sup-
posed from what is known that the
horses were running away and Mr. Hill
got out of the wagon in some way
while attempting 10 control the horses
or he was thrown down from the wagon
and caught by the wheel or some other
part of the rig and SO killed. His face
was much crushed and there was large
cash cut in the head. After Mr.. Hill
was killed the horses ran against steep
rocky bank at the roadside and broke
the wagon tongue then took the wagon
across the road and altogether tum bled
down the steep bank Of the creek into
deep water where the wagon was found
turned upside down Tue horses were
found also in the water held by the
lines which had become entangled in
the wagon. There was a boy. who
lived with Mr.. Hill, lying down in the
bottom of the wagon box when the ac-
cident happened. He says be tried to
get to his feet at the time The horses
we're running but was thrown down BY
the>motion of the wagon and the next
that he could remember was that the
wagon went rolling over and over down
4 the bank with him in it and he found
himself loose in water over his head
He got out uninjured and proceeded to
the house and told Mrs Hill what had
occurred She went in search OF her
husband and stumbling over some OBJ
