Two of his hired men were hauling a load of hay from Barlow and when Ihey had got about half way up the Knight hill leading into Canny from the west, the horses being unable to hold the load of hay on the hill they stoped, and the horses, wacon and hay went down the steep embankment one hundred feet below. One horse was instantly killed; the other went down all right and did not get a scratch. One of the boys barely escaped going over the steep embankment by jump ing from the wagon as it went over the steep grade. Married, in Can hy, on the 11th inst., by Bev. 8.
