A RUNAwAy.-We can scarcely call it
runaway, but o case where some one
gets frightened and cannot drive a team.
Yesterday morning gentleman engaged
team and had it ready in front of the
Dexter Stables to drive TO one of the
valleys. He stepped out, leaving the
team headed up Meadow Valley street,
for the purpose of searching for a friend
that was to accompany him to the chosen
spot. They missed each other, and the
friend. reaching the buggy, stepped into
it. The animals, being in front OF the
stables, thought everything was ready for
a start, and accordingly went. The
young man. having hold of the reins with
his right hand and the buggy with the
left. thus using only one hand, could not
hold them in. They went at a pretty
fast pace toward the summit, he never
uttering a word in the time-evidently
thinking that his last day had come.
Some party taking in the situation and
seeing that the young man was no driver
and was frightened, mounted q horse and
succeeded in getting in front of the ami
mails and checked them. They were
brought back to the front of the stables.
at which place the original driver took
them in one hand, when all went on
smoothly.
