way here. Mr.. McConoughhey. who works
for Mr.. Abram Mumpher, was coming down
the Berger hill through Lagonda his wagon
became unmapageable by reason of q poor
tongue, and the horses were forced into a
fast trot by the load behind them, which
they could not hold. In making the turn
near VIM. ZuTavern's the wagon was up
set, throwing off the hay and the two men
who were on the load. who were pretty
badly bruised. The horses then ran of
with the wagon until they ran into the
gutter and bridge in front of Laybourn's
grocery building, which stopped them, with
slight injury to one horse and some dam
age to the wagon. The men were able to
ride home on the horses.
