Uncle Dick and Lisa's Old Time Animal Tales

 

     On Tuesday last a team belonging to and driven by Mr. Chas. Kuhnert, became frightened and run while coming out of the alley near Hutchinson’s store. The wheels stricking the building, the pole of the wagon was broken, and the wagon struck a sign pole at the outer edge of the walk. Passing across the street, the barber pole was broken down and another team was run into, the wagon upset, and a Miss Cremmons, of Avon, was thrown out and slightly injured. The two teams then ran down the street towards Pearce’s drug store, one of them badly breaking a third wagon, and bringing up against the drug store sign which was also broken off. Mr. Kuhnert received a severe cut on the face, and his wagon box and pole was badly demoralized; Mr. Cremmons’ wagon tongue was broken off, and his horses somewhat bruised, and the wheel of the third vehicle was entirely broken down.
