Boone Kinkaid and Miss Maud Currie

Boone Kinkaid and Miss Maud Currie
escaped what in a majority of cases
would prove fatal accident last Thurs
Gay night while out riding. The horse
became excited by the passing of rigs
on both sides and made q lunge and
started to run. Boone held him in
check and by some means the horse
got his leg over the shaft and began to
kick. The shafts and box of the buggy
were broken into pieces and both Boone
and Miss Maud were struck once. They
managed to get out without sustaining
any further injuries. The popularity
Is that the horse is gentle and had new
er been known to kick before. The even.
ing's ride cost Boone about So by the
time the buggy and harness were re-
paired. and he says he don't care to un-
dergo another such an experience at any
cost.
