Horses Start Up, Man Thrown Under Load Of Brick.

Chas. O’Hare Sustains Bad Injuries This Morning in Local Freight Yards.

     This morning Charles O’Hare, a local driver for the Bairstow Coal Company, was unloading a car on the E. J. & E. tracks. In some way his team started up rather suddenly and he was thrown beneath the load of brick and as a result of it his leg was broken.

     O’Hare was thrown into a pile of mud and the singular part of it is that according to spectators, men who ran to the scene when they saw the accident had happened devoted more time to extricating the horses from their position of entanglement than they did in rescuing O’Hare.

     O’Hare was taken to the county hospital where Dr. Gourley set his leg and he is now reported getting on nicely although he will be laid up for some time.
