Runaway Accident

While returning from the cemetery
Thursday morning Chas D. Cole
and sisters Ida and Ollie narrowly
escaped death or very serious injury,
when they we're all thrown from the
buggy in which they were riding.
lust as they were on the railroad
crossing the horse they were driving
suddenly took fright and ran away,
and as it was down.hill it was only
a second until the horse was under
full way. The buggy struck stump
near the corner OF a yard and all
three were thrown from the buggy
over the fence and into the yard.
The girls were both unconscious
when picked up and it was feared
for a few moments that Ollie was
killed, but a doctor was hastily
summoned and after examination it
was found that no bones were brok.
en- and very fortunately all escaped
with only some severe bruises and
cuts aud a bad shaking up.
AS usual erroneous reports were
soon in circulation all over town
that the two girls were both killed.
and it was some time before the
real facts were known.
