While Fred Twomey, the Iron

driving into Ellington last Tues
day afternoon one of the horses
got his foot over the buggy tongue
and commenced to kick. Fred
got out and got one of the horses
by the bride but it broke and the
team started to town at its fastest
gait. Fortunately they broke
loose from the buggy without do

in and Fred did too, somewhat
later. He had escaped without a
scratch, as his friends were glad
to learn. except that he was some-
