Last Friday night while the Witter
House dray was hauling the trunks of
the Game Keeper Co. to the depot,
the horse got tangled up with live
electric wire that had dropped to the
ground in front of Johnson & Hills
drug store The horse was thrown to
the pavement very heavily and suffered
great agony. At any rate the by
ISLANDERS who were eye witness to the
accident say they never knew horse
could make so much noise. Dewey
Farrell who was on the rear Of the
dray not Knowing why the horse
dropped, jumped off the wagon and
went to the horses head and taking
hold Of the bride to assist the horse
to rise received a shock which made
him do a double somersault. The
by-standers finally procured boards
which they stood on and with long poles
they removed the wire from under
meath the poor horse. The horse was
then helped to his feet and shaking
himself he began to plod his weary
way to the depot with the load OF
trunks apparently none the worse for
the terrible voltage OF electricity he
had received.
