Drawn over Rough Road.
NORFOLK. Neb., Jan. 2.-(Special.)-
Herman Schwanke, a farmer who had lived
for years near Norfolk, was dragged to
his death with his foot twined about the
axle of his carriage.
Schwanke was driving along the road
with his wife. The horses stopped and he
was about to get out and repair the har-
ness. In stepping out, just as his foot
rested upon the axle, he lost his balance
and fell forward, his head on the ground
and his foot caught in the wheel. This
frightened the horses and they dashed
away, dragging their driver. His leg was
broken and he was dragged mile and a
half His wife was thrown out and
bruised. When picked up at a culvert,
where the team and buggy separated. the
mans fur coat had been burned away,
with other clothing, to the flesh, by the
friction against the rough road. His face
was badly bruised.
