" Wilson Minich made narrow
escape while gathering marketing
sst Thursday Near the residence Of
W. Scott He1ch. Having to cross
the run he did not know that the
bridge had been removed till he
came near the water, which WAS very
high at the time, and as the road
WAS 80 narrow that he could not
turn around, he ventured to cross,
and the horse plunged in up to the
back. Wheh Dir. Minich saw the
depth Of the water he thought they
would all be taken down the stream,
out fortunately got safely to land
without any harm being done, except
hat the chickens in his coops got a
ducking.
