AS the funeral of Mr. William S. Coale
was passing through Bel Air on Thurs
day afternoon, a team in front of Mr.. |
Dennis Bradley commenced backing.
This frightened his horse and the animal |
jumped upon the steep embankment on
the sidewalk. Mr. Bradley was dragged
some little distance and painfully bruised
and cut. DR.. Armfeld F. VanBibber
rendered the necessary medical assistance.
MIR. Bradley's buggy was demolished as
was the carriage of Mr.. William +. ks
ling, which was in the rear. The occu-
pants of the latter vehicle were uninjured.
The game of base ball, which took
place on Saturday afternoon between
Bel Air and Delta was from all accounts
"A disgrace to a respectable community.
We do not wish to enter into the merits
of either side, but ii does seem very
strange that a neighboring town cannot
enter into a little harmless amusement
like our National game without having
such exhibitions as we are told occurred.
1t would be far better in the future for
the Bel Air Club to decline to play with
the Delta people unless an understanding
could be established, which would pre-
vent a repetition of any such proceedings
as have occurred in the past.
