It is with extreme regret that
we record that Mr.. ID. X. Hough-
telin aud wife, who live on
Figueroa street, near the residence
of Major Mitchell, met with an ac-
cident on Sunday afternoon by
which they both received serious
injuries. They had Just entered O
buggy for the purpose of taking q
drive when the reins fell from the
dash board, at which the horse
took fright and ran away. When
the animal reached the street, it
turned short, upset the vehicle and
threw the occupants out. Mrs.
Houghtelin fell on her face, cutting
it very badly, and Mr. Houghtelin
on his head and shoulder, the fall
fracturing his collar bone and lac :
rating aud bruising his face feai~
fully. Major Mitchell and his
brother-in-law, Mr.. Glassell, at
tracted by the noise of the Iuua-
way, FASTENED to the street and
found Mr.. aud Mrs. Houghte!iu
lying on the road in an insensible
condition. With the aid of a gen.
tleman, whose name we do not re-
call, who was already on the
ground and who was suppOrtirg
Mrs Houghtelin, they carried the
injured persons into the house and
sent for DR.. Orme. On his arrival
the Doctor administered the proper
rem edies, but was unable to resus-
citate Mr.. Hougheliu, who re-
NAMED unconscious until yestel-
day. We trust that no serious TT :
suits may follow and that Mr..
Houghtelin will soon be around
and able to attend to business.
