Hurled Under the Wheels of
The Buggy.
THOUGHT TO SUFFER
INTERNAL INJURIES
After Accident Horse Contin-
ued His Wild Dash Until It
CoIIided With Coal Wagon
Causing Wreck.

Mrs. Reuben Rich. of 81 Richmond
avenue, was the victim of a very pecu-
liar runaway accident in West Rich
mond this afternoon about l O'Clock.
She was engaged in removing the bri-
die from her horse, which was hitched
in front Of her residence on Richmond
avenue, when the animal became
frightened and ran rapidly east on the
avenue. Mrs. Rich chung franticaliy
to the bride but was unable to stop
the speed of the horse. In some pc
culiar manner she became entangled IN
the harness and fell, both wheels of
the carriage passing over her body.
An ugly cash was cut In Mrs. Rich's )
temple and it is feared that she was
internally injured also. She was ia
ken to her home, where medical atten-
ton was Immediately given her. Her
nervous system sustained great
shock.
Heads for River Bank.
The horse continued its mad run
and when directly opposite o. H. Lit
ties livery barn, collided with Unit
ed Coal Yard wagon with direful re.
| suits. A deep cash was cut in the an
imars hip and both front legs were
bruised and cut up. The shafts on the
carriage broke and the animal. thus
relieved Of the vehicle, turned and raj
west. It was finally stopped on Ran
| dolph street and taken to the veterina
rvs where its injuries were given at
tention. Almost all of the harness
was broken beyond repair. The hors'
was headed straight for the steep em
| bankment of the river when it cOllid
ed with the coal wagon.
