Rockingham Register of the goth
says: James B. Stephenson is laid
up as the result Of painful injuries
received few DAYS ago in a runa-
way accident. He was drying not
far from Dayton, when bolt came
out, dropping one of the shafts on
the horses heels. The animal kicked
and ran and Mr.. Stephenson was
thrown from the buggy, causing a
slight fracture of one of his ribs.
While Mr.. Tom Slaven was exer-
cising his horse, last Tuesday even
ing. he allowed it to attain rather a
high rate of speed. In passing the
residence of DR.. |. Fl. Trimble it at
tempted to turn in at the gate
which enters the stable lot, and
struck a large stone and went Oh
crashing through through the
plank fence, the rider reaching the
ground on the inside Of the fence
By the overhead route, somewhat
in advance Of the horse. The hand
of Providence was certainly deal
ing in Mr.. Slaven's favor, for he
came out of the wreck unframed,
but the horse did not come off so
we'll. An ugly-looking wound was
inflicted, either by the stone or
some part Of the broken fence, on
it's breast, but it is not likely to
prove serious.
