w. L. French left his horse attached to
a buggy fastened to the telephone pole in
front OF the postoftice last Saturday. 1t
was a common snap halter with one end
hitched to the pole and the other snapped
into the bit. The animal in some way got
the bride off from its head and then
broke loose and made lively time down
the sidewalk, crossing the road by the
store OF Abbott q Cady and careening the
buggy against the park fence, where the
of one wheel were left. A
second came into collision with the depot
scales and very little was left OF the wag-
on except the body, but the horse did not
seem to be damaged. On the same day
Mrs. NJ. II. Davis and two daughters OF
Gaysville were rudely tipped out OF a
wagon near the lumber sheds by the horse
turning too close, and considerable dam
age was done to the wagon.
