Frightened animals do strange things.
Some years ago a frightened horse ran into
the house OF Mr.. Blake in Corinth and did
not stop until he had crossed a long kitchen
through a door and against a bed and ran
his head into a looking-glass which hung
over the bed, in which Mr.. and Mrs. Blake
slept. In the darkness, Mrs. Blake, arous-
ed so suddenly, thought a cyclone had
struck the house and unroofed it, while the
dripping blood from the horses cut head
falling on her face like rain, tended to con-
firm her in that view, till a light brought
out the facts. The above came to my mind
when l was told of a COW, chased by a dog,
very unceremoniously entering the house of
Deacon o. M. Hubbard and wrecking kitch-
en- furniture amid shrieking and ~fainting
women. A blind man Of the family hearing
the din, took refuge behind the stove.
When the cow had freed everyone in sight,
she dashed out the door and attacked a car
rage in which two young women had taken
refuge. Her horns became entangled in
the spokes 30 she was easily captured.
