base of the hill coasting. and were upon
the same track that had been taken by
the runaway horses in their decent from
the hill, and for a time it seemed that
the little dears would not see their dan

death, but fortunately some of their num-
Der discovered the runaway team COM
ing down the road and gave the alarm
just in time to get out of the road for the
team to pass. It seems a miricle that no
one was hurt and that no damage was
done, considering hat the team ran
through Main street and below the
Smokey mill before stopping. A few
wagons and sleighs narrowly escaped a

seeing this runaway team come down he
was trying to trade horses with Karb-
stein before night.
