What might have proven quite a serious accident, happened to Miss Annie Bradshaw, 4th line, last Sun- day evening, as she was returning home after spending the day witk some friends, on the 0th line. She was accompanied by her little neice and Mrs. McNeal, a friend. As she was coming through the Sunshine side -road, the horse shied, and as she drew it up, the line broke near her hand, and the horse started to run. After some trouble she succeeded in regaining the broken line, and kept the horse on the road, until they came to Mr. Youill's gate, a mile and a half distant. There the horse sudden- ly turned in, and the cutter coming in contact with some stones, the oc- cupants were thrown out, The horse freeing itself from the harness and cutter, ran into the yard, where it was caught. The harness was broken but the cutter was none the worse. Miss Bradshaw and neice escaped, but Mrs. McNeal received a badly sprained ankle, which will lay her up for some time. J. Youill acted as the good Samaritan by hitching up and driving the occupants home. Con- sidering the icy condition of the roads and the broken line, not many would have shown the pluck, Miss Bradshaw slid. A • r 4 Myth.
