GOOSE CAUSES HER DEATH
Horse Drags Mrs. Miller From q
Bridge When Scared by Birds
Honking.

Hackensack, N. Mrs. A. II. Mil
Ter, whose husband has charge of the
estate Of E. Percy Smith, a mining
engineer of Woodcliff Heights, N. j.,
set out from the Smith homestead to
drive two of her friends to the rail-
road station at Woodcliff lake, a mile
and half away. The three women
started off gayly in small one-seat-
ed farm wagon drawn by somewhat
frisky horse When they arrived at
the station, which is on the New Jer-
sey e New York railroad, about ten
miles above Hackensack Mrs. Miller
babe her friends good-by and drove
away to do some errands. She pur-
chased some groceries at the small
store of Garry Alderman and called at
the freight office for a Grated goose,
which she put in the back of the farm
wagon. Then she started for her
home.
The horse had turned the bend in
the road above the railroad station
and was headed toward a bridge span
ming the new Woodcliff lake reservoir,
when the goose gave shrill hork.
The horse heard it and ran away. AS
the horse approached the bridge it IN
creased it's speed, and when it heard
the clatter of it's own hoofs on the
planks it swerved. A fisherman sit
ting a hundred yards away saw the
animal head directly for the guard
rail of. the bridge. The guard rail is
four feet above the roadway, but the
horse broke through, dragging the
wagon containing Mrs. Miller over
into the water.
The fisherman who had seen the &C
cident, ran to the village for help.
Garry Alderman, who had seen the
horse bolt, obtained dragnets anc
after Is minutes Mrs. Miller's body
was recovered and removed to Park
Ridge. The water was 25 feet deep
at the place where the horse made
his plunge, and it was several hours
before the farm wagon and the body
of the horse were recovered. The
goose, which was the original cause
Of the accident was found floating un-
hurt in the crate, which stayed on the
surface of the water.
