What might have been a serious ac-
cident was averted by the presence of
mind and pluck of Miss Edna Detwiler
Saturday evening at the Detwler home
in Lincoln township. Mrs. Detwiler had
just returned from Audubon and before
she alighted from the buggy the team
became frightened and started to run.
Miss Detwiler grabbed them and was
dragged ten or twelve rods before she
succeeded in stopping them. No damage
was done save breaking the doubletrees
and bruising the young lady slightly.
