Mr. and Mrs. Charles Scheffler, of Near Smithland,
Had Rough Experience Today.
----------
The horse went into the ditch quick as a flash and the spill came to the occupants of the buggy almost without warning. Their buggy was somewhat badly damaged but they escaped with only a few bruises. A big basket of eggs they were bringing to the city was lost in the smash, as only three of the eggs remained whole following the accident. The harness was also damaged, but they were able to continue their trip to the city after doing some repair work on the vehicle and harness.
