a Runaway.

Mr.. VIM. Fogg, who lives on the Shiloh
pike neal Barrett's Run, was in charge of
two wagons one day last week, one at
tached to the rear of the other, the latter
containing a moving machine. Just at
the rear of these two wagons a son-in-law
of Mr.. Fogg drove a second team. In
passing the residence of Mr.. Bacon along
the pike the horses of the first team were
frightened by two shots fired from a gun,
and Immediately started on a run. Mr..
Fogg was at once thrown to the ground
and lost all control of the horses, but was
picked up by his son-in-law and put in
charge of the second team. He was barely
able to stand, however, and leaned heavily
against the horses. while his son-in-law
went in pursuit of the runaways. This
team turned in home without damage. and
Mr.. Fogg was then cared for. We under
stand to-day that he is confined to his bed.
