Iron Hill made fierce attack upon
Miss Mary Campbell while she was
crossing the field in which the animal

and painful injuries with its horns
while she lay helpless upon the
ground. A shepherd dog which
accompanied Miss Campbell attacked
the COW causing that animal to turn
and fight the dog while Miss Camp

to the home of Casey to do some

his coat the boy climbed up on the

very wild, started and went down the
road at rapid rate, the little fellow

wagon nearly upset and young Casey
was thrown into the wagon and
among spike harrow and pillow.

top of him, bnt he was not hurt in
the least.-Oxford Press.

whole community for the distressed
family. The railroad employees were
exculpated from all blame by the
Co:oner's jury.
