Of rescuing the horses was James Hay

had just taken hold Of two horses to lead
them TO place OF safety, when a we'll

door. suddenly struck him a powerful
blow IN the face. He fell almost under
the feet OF the horses but recovered his
balance. only to find that his assailant
had disappeared. Hayward said he never
saw the man before and Is trying 10 figure
out why he assaulted him. Some think
the stranger may have fired the stable
and thinking Hayward had discovered
his action struck him and then disap-
