place on Thursday, the 18th inst, at 8
o'clock A. NJ, under charge of Mr.. b. r.
Johnston-interment at Plainfeld. Sery-
ices were held at the house, and conduct
ed by Rev. G. S. Hackett. The funeral
took place from the residence of Mrs. Alb
igail Nichols, where deceased had made
her home for several years. A neat cask-
ct was provided, and kind hands did all
that could be done to prepare the body
for its last long journey. There was a
good attendance of friends and neigh
bors Mrs Selby was perhaps near so
years of age, and was member of the
Methodist Church. In noticing her ill
ness last week we were in error in CIV
ing her name as Miss Maria Hatcher.
Her maiden name was Hatcher.
An infant child of Mr.. and Mrs. Thos.
Boyd was buried at Unity on Saturday,
and daughter of Mr.. Nelson Tyson
formerly of this locality, but lately resid-
ing near Holloway, at Crab Apple.
On Saturday evening last as Mr.. John
Dunbar was leaving town his horse rear
ed and fell on him, breaking his left arm
near the wrist joint The injury was a
very painful one, and will prove serious.
as he will be deprived of the use of his
hand and arm for length of time. Mr..
Dunbar is a good horseman, and if the
horse had not fell would not have been
thrown from the saddle; but as it was he
had no chance to make provision for his
safety. The horse was spirited one, and
hard to control, especially on starting out.
The accident occurred near the square,
and as soon as Mr.. Dunbar recovered
from the sickness arising from the injury
he went to the Office of DR.. ]. G. Work
man, who set the broken bones and afford
ed all relief that could be given under the
circumstances. The friends of Mr.. Dun
bar regret the pain he will have to suffer,
as also his loss of time during a very
busy season.
As Mr.. Ray Allen was driving to the
Bannock church with his family on Sab
bath afternoon his horses became fright
ened and started to run away. In con-
trolling them the trace chains were loos-
ened, and the wagon was carried off the
turnpike and over the bank. A little
daughter, aged about 3 years, was thrown
from the wagon and received painful in
juries about the breast and stomach. She
was carried to the house of Mr.. Joseph
Junkins, and Dr. Workman called, who
decided that the injuries were not of a
dangerous nature, and that she will soon
recover.
On Sabbath morning Mr.. Fred Michael
started for Crab Apple church with his
little brother and sisters. He was driv-
ing span of mules attached to spring
wagon On descending the long and steep
hill east of town, one of the tongue straps
broke, and the Wagon was run against
the mules causing them to try to run
away from the wagon, and it was not long
until Mr.. Michael realized the fact that
he had runaway mule team to deal
with. At the foot of the steep hill was
on each side of the roadway were deep
gullies washed out with the late rains,
and in railroad parlance; the question
with Fred was, which is best, to keep to
the track or to "ditch the engine;" he
chose the latter, and in moment it lay
in the ditch, turned completely over, with
shattered woodwork, the trucks spin
ming on their axles in the air, and two
sad mules lying in front kicking at imag
mary flies. Providentially no one was
injured, aud their escape seemed almost
miraculous. Mr.. NJ. knowing that DR..
Workman practiced on broken bones,
and not on broken axles, did not make
call for his professional service, much
to their satisfaction. Fred can handle
the hold-back straps break, "where are
you?"
Mr. Josiah Snedeker is quite i'll; Mrs. S.
has also been sick, but is now BETTER
ThOs. Henderson and little son Carl, of
GAINESVILLE, are visiting relatives in this
vicinity.-Mrs. Eliza Coup has returned
from pleasant visit to the home of her
son at Akron, o.; Mr.. Allan Coup was
one of the sufferers by the recent tornado
at that place; his friends will be glad to
learn that he is the happy father of a
new boy baby.-Mr.] os. Wright of this To-
cality rejoices over the advent of anOth-
er little girl into his family. IL.
