n well known resident of this eitv,
I narrowly escaped death in the waters
of Apploguto i her Wednesduay after-
'noon when a load of hay on which
they wore riding turned over in mid-
I stream. Anderson, a man of about
f 210 nrs, narrowly escaped being
trapped beneath the load and drowi-
jed while Tohu Taylor, a boy of t'J
.years, was thrown violently into tho

The manner in which tho wagon

rolled into a hole, causing the top
he.nv load of hay to go over. Xo
damage was done other than losing
