Flint Citizen: On Tuesday Fred Burdick,
of Venice, Shlawassee county, was In Flint
with load and started for home late In the
afternoon. When few miles out on the
road he got down from the wagon to run
and warm himself up. While he was on
the ground the horses got frightened at
something and ran away, leaving him to
walk home, which he did. supposing that
his team would be there before him. But
they were not; they had turned of on side
road and were picked up and cared for by
by Joe McGlinchy who, thinking that per-
haps the driver might have been hurt, came
to Flint and notified the Night Police. The
next morning Burdick came around, got MS
horses and told how II happened.
