A Close Call.

J. A. Piland of the Swauk had a
very narrow escape few days ago.
He and a young man were hauling
hay, the young man driving and
Mr.. Piland pulling the brake-rope
and in going down a grade, the
front end Of the load slipped off
on the team, carrying with it the
driver. This frightened the team
and they ran away. The only thing
that Mr.. Piland could do was to
hold on to the brake and watch for
an opportunity to jump and this
he did, but his pants caught on the
brake, throwing him off OF the load
on his head, scratching and bruis-
ing up his face pretty badly. The
team landed in a wire fence and in
order to extricate them, it became
necessary to cut the harness all to
pieces 1t was indeed a close call
for Mr.. Piland and he does not care
to have anymore experience in that
line.
