While some of these medicines partially

would seize me the moment I attempted

AN EXCITING RUNAWAY.
A REMARKABLE ESCAPE FROM DEATH
 AND SERIOUS INJURY.

There was quite an exciting runaway at the foot of the Street, last Saturday
 morning. Phio and Walter Nichols, ac oompanied by young lady friends, drove from Bridgeport to attend the dance al the Town hall, last Friday evening. Sat. urday morning they drove around the lake and were inst starting for Bridge port. When about in front of Dicks ho- tel one of the horses stumbled and fell, breaking the pole off about two feet from the whitlletrees. With this swinging back and forth between them, the horses started on run down the road. When near Sheriff Rodgers place the wagon ran into the bank head on and almost turned 8 somersault. The occupants were thrown nut, but not seriously in- juTed, though somewhat bruised. The carriage was rather badly damaged. The horses ran against post in front of Aaron Sanford's farm house and were cas- fly captured. The young ladies went back to Bridgeport on the train, MT Nich- oIs driving the horses. which were only scratched and not seriously hurt, back later in the day.
