w. v. Tainter, a few days ago, was
riding on horse rake driving a young
horse. when descending hill. all of a
sudden, the horse sprang and all Mr..
Tainter remembers is that he felt
something brush the side of his head,
but it did not seem to hurt him much.
This was all he realized till Alfred
Parker. who was some distance in the
rear, came near and noticed the rake
and horse without any driver Look
ing more closely he saw Mr. Tainter on
the ground directly behind the horse s
feet and against the teeth of the rake,
unconscious. He soon rallied after be-
ing taken from his perilous situation,
but he had received several ugly cuts
and bruises; two cuts were on the
head. one of which required five
stitches to close.
