A VERY BAD RUNAWAY.
FATHER, SON AND DAUGHTER
PAINFULLY HURT.
A Horse Belonging to Mr. J. M.
Nowell Becomes Frightened
and Runs Into and Overturns
Another Buggy r
A very bad runaway took place-
lat Monday afternoon as Mr. J. M.
Nowell, who was accompanied by
his wife and two children, were on
their way home. They had been to
Iouisburg and Were traveling in two
buggies, the son, Charlie, and daugh
ter, Annie, being in the buggy in
front, while Mr. Nowell and his wife
were riding in a buggy immediately
behind their children. One ot the
wheels of the buggy in which Mr.
Nowell was riding became entangled
with a fence rail which turned under
the buggy, broke one of the shafts
and threw him out. He held to the
reins but the horse being frightened
dashed off dragging Mr. NoWell with
him, which continued until Mrs.
Nowell, who remained in the buggy,
called to her husband to turn the
reins loose. This he did, and the
frightened horse dashed into the
buggy in front, overturned it and
Bpilled the two children on the
ground. Miss Annie received a
fracture of the skull and Charlie was
painfully bruised. Dr. R. F. Yar
borough was summoned and went
immediately to the home of Mr.
Nowell and administered to the suf
ferings of the injured. For some
time Miss Annie was unconscious,
but Wednesday she was reported by
Dr. Burt, who aw her,- as being very
much improyed.

his arm: then snatched up the bottle
took two or three drinks, picked u p
the dollar and put t in his pocket,
and went out smacking his lips. The
Dutchman poked his head out from
behind the door and exclaimed:
