A sheep herder, tending a flock
near Stanfield, heard peculiar vibra
tions on the wires of a fence. He
followed the fence and came upon a
Ford car against the fence with the
engine running, and underneath, un

Horkins. The lady had evidently
cranked her car, which lurched for
ward, knocking her down. The fence
stopped the car, and the throbbing
engine sent its message along the
wires of the fence.
