BOY BADLY INJURED
Nine Year Old Son Of S, A. lkard
Of 10 Miles South Of Town
Kicked by Horse.

The nine year old son of 5. A.
Ikard, who lives ten miles south
of Lubbock is in the Sanitarium
at this place with frightfully
bruised face as the result of a
severe kick by a horse Sunday.
The right jaw bone is badly
shattered and all the teeth orr
that side of his mouth are knock
ed out and his cheek bone badly
disfgured.
He is resting as nicely as pos
sible under the circumstances
and it is expected that he will
recover in due time. The acct
dent, however, will leave its
mark on him, as the condition
of the wound is such that the
natural shape of the face cannot
be restored.
1t seems it was the old gentle
buggy horse that had helped
raise the family that played
traitor in this instance and be-
came unrully while being driven
to the buggy and began kicking
which resulted as stated above.

tench, perch and pike. Now there was
nothing but dry mud. With the water
the fish had entirely disappeared, ami
