Capt. C. H. Bailey and his house- keeper were driving along West Mais street Friday morning, when the pair of high spirited gray horses which he was _driving becdme frightened when the kingbolt of the wagon broke, 2nj started to runm, throwing bota occu- pants of the carriage out 1nto the street. The accident happened about 11 o'clock. The horses, taking the two front'wheels and the pole, started off on a fast run for Gardner lake over the Salem turnpike. Edward Dugan, a representative of a Hartford company, and Mr. Ross, also of Hartford, who were here on a ‘business trip and who happened to be on West Main street at the time of the accident, went to the assistance of the couple and secured the services of a doctor, Both Captain Bailey and his housekeeper: suffered injuries abcut the hands and body, but the captain was the more injured of the two. Cap- tain Bailey’s housekeeper was taken care of by people in the vicinity of the accident. Mr. Dugan then offéred the services of his automobile in capturing the horses, and he with his friend, Mr. Ross, and Captain Bailey staried off in pursuit of the fleeing horses. The searching party started off over the Salem turnpike and in a short time arrived at a point some distance be- yond the Lefingwell church. They made several stops along the road to inquire if the horses had been seen, and receiving an affirmative aaswer kept on and when they got within three miles of the lake saw the horses away in the distance. Mr. Dugan ran the auto into the neighboring ficlds so as to head the horses off, and =09 got ahead of them and they were stop- ped. Mr. Ross took charge of the horses and drove them back ty the scene of the accident. The body of the wagon was replaced on the front able and then was driven to the re- pair shop of P. D. Pfeiffer. The horses had to be reshod because they lost three shoes in the hard run. Unclaimed Letters.
