THREE CCIDENTS-SLIGHT, SER
IoUs, FATAL Last Wednesday no less
than three accidents happened in our
neighborhood, aud all within a radius
of about mile. A Son of Daniel Hos
terman, the tenant of Jonathan Harter
while narrowing was kicked by one of
the horses Just above the eye. We did
not learn the exact particulars of this
case but are happy to state that the
young man is not very seriously injur-
| ed.
The second came near resulting 10
the death of Mary E. Harter, daughter
of q. w. Harter. We have the details
from Mr.. Harter himself. He was en-
gagged at narrowing when Mary came
| to the field and asked her father to al
low her to ride one IF the horses, of
whic!4 she was very fond. Mr.. Harter
placed the little girl on horse and all
went we'll for while, but on reaching
the end of the field and in turning the
horses the double-tree caught under the
harrow and turned up perpendicular,
bringing the traces suddenly against the
animals legs, which caused him to
kick. Mary fell from the horse on the
| harrow, the horses became nnrnanaga-
BILE, got entangled in the gears and one
Of theth fell on Mary. 1t was some
time before she could be rescued from
he n perilous position ard it is wonder
that she was not killed outright. Her
arm is badly broken near the shoulder
and she also has an ugly cash at the ell
bow. At this writing she IS doing as
well as can be expected.
The third accident happened at Isaiah
Riders on the mountain near Jacob
Snavely's, and resulted in thu death of
Michael Rider, a son Of Isaiah. aged
% years. They had just finished har-
rowing a aeld and were IN tie act
of carrying the harrow onto the wagon
outside when the horses took fright at
pig running out of the woods and
and ran off. Micha ei was coming a.
long toward the running team and
tried to stop the horses but was thrown
so severely against stump that he
