Saturday noon, there was some ex-
element at the VIM. McNerney farm
in Summit township when q dispute
arose Over the amount Of wages due
McGuffy, a hired Tar of McNerney's.
McNerney came over to q neighbor
and phoned to town to find out what
| the store bill was and amount of
same that McGu1v had received and
charged to him. He found as q result
that they had already received more
than they had coming and on re-
turning to his farm accompanied by
another neighbOr he told McGuffy he
would not pay him more as he had
already received his pay, thereon
McGuffy seeing his little plot ito do
McNerney discovered threatened, and
tried to shoot McNerney striking him
and badly bruising his face with the
gun. McNerney knocked him down
and another neighbOr who had come
to move McGuffy's household goods
q abbed the gun and hid it. McNerney
came to town and had papers made
out for assault. The hearing was sci
for Thursday.
On Saturday afternoon on main
street, occurred what came near being
= fatal accident, when Lillian Burdine
! nine years old and her brother four
years old, children of Mrs. S. w.
Burdine, were crossing the street or
the crosswalk and q double buggy
loaded with Ave members of the
ZschOmler family who live east Of
town, the team driven by Percy
Zschomler, started one-half block
away to drive home; they started the
team on the tot and drove toward
the center of the street toward the
N1ilAAOA Ia AAOA oWOPpOA WHICH, C0llCu
to, by their mother who was on the
opposite side of the street to let the
team pass by, as she saw the team
coming, she called q second time for
the team to stop, but the driver paid
no attention and did not turn his rig
to avoid them, nor slack up on the
speed of the horses. The little boy
was a few steps ahead and was knock.
ed down first and rolled under the
horses feet, the girl screamed and
reached for him and she was knocked
down and dragged several feet from
the cement crosswalk and both wheels
ran over her, bruising her badly or
thigh and knee OF her right limb and
calf Of left limb and hip and elbow OIL
left arm badly bruised and raw but
fortunately no bones were broken,
The boy was rolled like a bal
first under one horses feet then the
other and the wheels did not pass
over him. He suffered several bruises
OF 3 minor character on his body and
head. W. as q spectator could MOI
help but notice how carefully the
horses tried to avoid striking the
boy with their hoofs, and it was only
owing to the girls scramble to avoid
the wheels that she was not run over
10 q more vital part of her body.
