Bluffs, when the horses became
frightened and ran away. The &C
cupants were thrown to the ground
and more or less injured though not
seriously. They had been berrying
and in addition To being so badly
shaken up, lost about thirty quarts of
berries. Friday afternoon Mr.. Palmer
was driving to Ehis city with load of
cucumberS. The horses suddenly be-
came unmanaga bic. AS result Mr..
Palmer was spilled" out and sustained
an ugly cut across his lower jaw.
Last Thursday night Mr.. and Mrs.
Dell hurry and little son narrowly
escaped being seriously injured in
runaway while returning from Bab-
cock. 1t was very dark night and in
some way the horses left the road and
run the buggy against a stump. over
turning it and throwing them all out.
Luckily with exception of bad Shak-
ing up none were badly hurt. The
horses ran some distance dragging Mr..
hurry after them. but he succeeded
in stopping them at last and with the
aid of some straps found in the buggy
fixed up the harness so they could pro-
coed the rest of the way home.
