On Sunday, as William Brunson, accompanied by Clara and Lucy Zimpher, was driving down the hill north of town, the horse became frightened, and commenced kicking and running. It kicked Mr. Brunson near the right eye, the cork of the shoe striking his nose and knocking him out of the buggy. Clara jumped out, falling upon her head and shoulders on the pike. She was carried into Mr. Struble's house, and was unconscious for over an hour. Lucy did not jump, but was thrown back into the top of the buggy, where she was fastened, and escaped unhurt. The horse ran down the hill against a wire fence, cutting his shoulder and hip to the bone and leaving pieces of flesh on the fence. The horse is 23 years old, and was bought for a safe family horse, but it has been ascertained since that the man who sold him knew him to be a kicker and unsafe.
