On Saturday afternoon as Horace
Fairbrother of Westmore, with his
wife and three small children, were
driving through the village with two
horses attached to a double express
wagon, the fastening which was in
tended to hold the ring from slipping
back on the wagon pole gave out and
the carriage ran on to the horses,
causing them to run with great speed
from Mr.. Whitcher's down Main
street opposite 0. D. OWENS store
when the harnesses gave out and the
horses became detached from the
wagon. The pole dropped down and
ran along over the ground impeding
the wagon so that all were thrown
with great violence to the ground, the
wagon running over some of them.
The children were all hurt, but no
bones were broken; Mr.. Fairbrother
received bad scalp wound and was
bruised and famed. Mrs. F., who
chung to her babe, struck the ground
such force as to render her uncon-
scious, though it cannot be discovered
that her skull or other bones are frac-
tured. She remains up to this hour
in a deranged and nearly unconscious
condition with the chances against
her recovery. The family had start
ed to 60 to Coventry on visit. Mrs.
Fairbrother was taken to the house
of E. G.. Collision, the children to
Oscar Kimball's.
