Rev. Cummings and Miss Holland meet
with Catastrophe.

Will CATASTROPHE
Yesterday Rev. Chas. Cummings a
colored preacher here, and Miss Hol-
land of the east side, started for
drive out the Kingwood pike. Every
thing was all right until shortly afte-
they had crossed the bridge when go
ing the hill the horse took notion to
go ia different direction. Instead
OF going forward he suddenly started
to back over the hill. At this stage
Miss Holland jumped out Of the bug
gy, receiving few slight bruises.
The reveend gentleman stuck to his
post, and horse, buggy and occupant
were in short time at the bottom OF
the hill. The buggy was demolished
and Rev. Cummings badly shaken up.
1t might have resulted a great deal
more disastrous than it did.
