The other four will have to serve
the five days sentence laid upon
them under the law by the squire.

Fur iture dealer Snyder, and Mrs.
Snyder his wife, were in Port Royal
last Friday afternoon in buggy.
Mr. Snyder got out but left his wife
seated till be should tie the animal,
ne tied the beast to post, that was
scarcely done til the beast turned its
head to brush off fly on its shoulder.
The tie rope was too short, and there
by the bead of the anim,l was
brought to SO farceful sop that
the bride was torn off That was
almost enough to frighten a wooden
horse. Snyder's beast was woefuily
scared, and at a bound was off into
a full run, and came toward the rail-.
road. At the intersection Of the
streets at Weisshaupt's business place
it turned and raa toward Min street
In mske,ng the turn at the corner,
the buggy was upset and Mrs. Sny-
der was thrown out and severely hurt
about tie ankles and bruised about
the body. The neivous shcck she
sustained was hard on her. She was
brought home on the cars in the
evening. A bound or twl of the
horse and the buggy got on its
wheels, but its running was Of short
duration. Out the street short
distance biiching post was struck
and the buggy stopped. The horse
was freed by the breaking of harness
and shafts. The animal WAS c,ught
not far away and was unhurt.
