The Vicious Horse.

In last weeks issue of the Tribune
mention was made of the accident
to VIM. Edwards, of Belmont, by his
being attacked by vicious stallion.
The best account of the affair was
published in the Shullsburg Pick
and Cad, as follows: lone Of the
most horrible accidents which ever
took place in this neighborhood oc-
Cured on the highway opposite the
residence of Michel A. O'Brieu, who
lives upon the Ryan farm, four miles
northwest of this city. William Ed
wards, of Belmont, groom Of the well
known French Coach horse, Rumeau,
had stopped at Mr.. O'Rrien's and
had just driven from the barnyard in
his buggy, leading the horse behind
the buggy, when suddenly the ami
NAL reared and spraug forward upon
the back part of the buggy and siez-
ed Mr., Edwards by the left arm
tearing the flesh from the arm from
the shoulder to the wrist and dislo-
citing the arm at the elbow, so that
the bones were entirely separated at
the joint and projected from the
flesh. After the animal had pulled
his victim from the buggy he then
kicked at the buggy, utterly de-
stroying one of the hind wheels.
The horse then ran up and down the
highway, and soon meeting Thomas
Clayton, who was driving team
and lumber wagon, attacked the
team and jumped between the two
horses and broke the neckyoke, and
then turned and kicked at the team
striking one Of the horses on the,
nose, crushing it il and badly iujur-
ing it. Mr.. Edwards was taken into
Mr.. o'Brleu's house and DR.. Hayden
and Dr. VIM. Gratiot of this city
were summoned, who fastened to
the scene as rapidly as possible
When obey arrived they found Mr.,
Edwards in a nearly unconscious
condition from loss of blood and
from the great nervous shock attend
ing the accident They rendered all
assistance within their power, but
from the terribly lacera;ed condition |
OF the mans arm they found that
amputation was necessary. Or, Hess
was also called to attend Mr., Clay
tons horse, which was badly injured
and which Will probably be dishgur- |
ed should it recover from the effects
of the wounds il received
