WelIn Pontius and his hired man,
Henry Beaver of Kratzerville, re-
ceived an unexpected bath in the
Susquehanna river on Saturday af-
ternoon while fording the stream
below Shamokin Dam and the two
men narrowly escaped with their
lives. They had their wagon load
ed with wood and when about the
middle of the stream, the water be-
came so deep that the horses had TO
swim. The horses were unreined
in order to give them more liberty
to help themselves. The wagon
came apart. The rear end iioated
down the stream while the horses
managed to reach the shore with
the front part.
