An Exciting Runaway Accident.
( Special to the Kennebec Journal. !


WArERvILLE. Jan. 2s.-Mr. G. S. Pat.
terson, who lives OF East Temple street in
this city, was driving up Silver street this
afternoon, being on his return from Oak
land, where be had been on business, when
be became aware that several teams were
coming up behind him at . rapid pace. He
turned his horse into the snow at one side,
so that they might pass, when ore Of
them ran against him. upsetting the
sleigh. throwing him out and in front of his
horse, which started 10 run and went over
him, intlic,ing some injuries. He then
kept on mp through Main Street, and turn
ins into Temple around Alden Duhon' $
drug store, ran down to the rail
road bridge, and out upon it several
rods before his legs went down through
the eleepers, where he was captured and
got upon terra firma where, strange to say,
il was found that he had sustained no injur-
les more than few scratches and bruises.
When Mr.. Patterson's horse vas dashipe
about into East Temple street, two ladies,
Miss Morse and another. turned their
horse into West Temple street, and in the
excitement attending the occasion, th-ii
equipace was reined TO one side of the
streets. tipping them ont, after which thei;
horse dashed up the sidewalk. but va.
finally captured before much damage wa
done. At the time of these runawsys there
were many teams and pedestrians on the
streets, and it is almost a miracle that there
was no serious result.
