FATALITY AMONG HORSES

Five horses owned by Richard Roth
well, farmer, whose place is near Prices
Corner, have died during the past few
days. All OF Mr.. Rothwell's horses were
stricken with forage poisoning few days
before Thanksgiving, and in three days
four of them died. On Thanksgiving the
two then living were sent to DR.. ]. R.
Mahaffy's Hospital, in Wilmington, and
were placed under his care, but one was
too far gone to be saved and it died on
Monday. The other one, the doctor
thinks will recover. Neighbors have
kindly loaned Mr.. Rothwell the use of
their horses. He was preparing to haul
lumber for new house when the horses
were stricken, and the neighbors are do
ing the hauling for him. The loss will
probably exceed 81 200, as the horses
were valuable. The poisoning is suppos-
ed to have been caused by mold getting
into the feed.-Erery Ereaing.
