riding on the roller, when the seat broke,
preciptating him suddenly behind the roll
er Unfortunately he had the lines fast
ened together and put over his shoulders,
and by his fall the horses were stopped
and backed, running over him, until the
lines broke, when the horses started for

| He spoke to the horses, when they again
stopped and backed, bringing him under
the roller for the third time. lie finally
succeeded in rescuing himself, sufficiently
bruised to make II necessary for him to lie
by for few days, though his injuries are
not considered dangerous. We have heard
of persons being "under the harrow,
but Mr. Wait can tell, without any figure
of speech, of being under the roller.
