Narrow Escape
Mr. l'hilip A. (Dad) Coale one
of the best known citizens of
this locality narrowly escaped a
fatal accideut one day last week
while returning from one of his
customary jaunts through the
surrounding communities, call
ing on friends and gathering
material for his wonderful "Short
Stories" for which he iB cele
brated. Deals in wool and hides
as a side line, and with several
tons on the wagon his spirited
team took fright at a passing
truck, just as he started to des
cend the grade from Wapinitia
plains, reared and plunged over
the embankment, Mr. Coale
being a skillful reinsman lost
both lines and by almost super
human effort clung to-the seat
until rescued by the driver of
-the truck. His injuries consist
ed of a bad fright and it will be
some time before he will entire
ly recover. He wishes to thank
his many friends for their kind
ness in listening to his elaborate,
explaining, how he handled the
team and escaped having his
brains dashed upon the rocks.
Upon the advise of all he depart
ed'for Portland to enjoy a com
plete rest from his ardous tasks.
L. C. Wilhelm returned home
