"A man in the North End bought horse
and cart last Friday TO go TO work on SEN
ter street for the city. All went well until
Sunday morning. When he went TO feed
the horse he found the side of the barn
kicked out. Scared out OF his wits he sent
for well known horse dealer TO consult
him as TO what he should do with the
horse. After examination, the horse dealer
told bin il would not do for him TO keep
such dangerous animal as that one, but
he had much better horse which he
would exchange IL he would give him $50
TO boot The bargain was completed.
Monday morning he started for his work
and in the vicinity of Orms street
this new and better horse began
TO kick, and in the space of a very few

cart TO pieces. At about 10 a. m. the
man was seen on his way home guiding
the horse and standing as far back as
the reips would let him.
