The horse tookfright and draw- ing the lines out of the driver's hands ran along James to Main street and into W. G. Bissett's store-roonis, the doors of which were open. The store was filled with buggies, plows, ete, but the horse in some mysterious way scaled everything and came to a halt when heading for the stairwayat the rear of the building which is some seventy five feet long.
