Frank Hughes figured in rather
mysterious runaway accident
Wednesday. He had taken up q
passenger to the West Side mine
in one of Sid Venable's teams and
came in town that night on foot
in dazed condition and could on
ly give a vague account of his re-
turn trip from Boyle Mountain.
The next morning The horses put
in an appearance with their harness
on but minus the buggy. Jake
kaufman was sent out to look for
the supposed debris of the buggy
and was not able to find it. Yes
terday it was brought in by John
Monks who found it in the sage
brush somewhere near the smelter.
1t was all intact. The question is
how did Frank Hughes, the horses
and buggy, manage to be separated
in three equal parts? The affair
will probably 60 down in history
as one of the unsolved mysteries of
the 10Th century.
