Horse But Saves His Own Life

DR.. ]. E. Hoyt of Kendrick on his

call, had one of his horses drowned
and the other horse as we'll as the
doctor himself escaping by a hairs
breadth, near Juliaetta Tuesday night
in the flood.
The night was very dark and the
doctor on reaching a point near the
White farm, about midway between
Juliaetta and Kendrick, drove into a
depression in the roadbed that was
filled with water. Seeing some brush
and floating timbers and bark, the
doctor sprang from his vehicle onto
what he thought was terra firma, but
went into water up to his neck. His
medicine case, bandages, ETC., went
into the water. Stanley White near
whose home the accident occurred,
helped the doctor and the living horse
out, when the doctor got on his horse
and tried to continue his journey but
water so deep he had to
give up. Leaving his horse at the
White home, the doctor walked back
to Kendrick on the railroad track.
