RUNAWAY AND NARROW ESCAPE - Yesterday morning, Dr. E. J. Reynolds and his
wife were riding out in a buggy before which was a spirited mare, and in
coming down High Street bridge toward Buffalo street, the animal became
fractious and started to run. As the carriage turned into Buffalo street one
of the forward wheels gave way and fell into fragments, and the occupants of
the vehicle were thrown out with great violence, Mrs. Reynolds struck upon
the cobble-stone paving in the street about eighteen inches from the curb,
and the Doctor fell a few feet further east. By some accident little short
of a miracle, neither received any serious injury, although both were badly
bruised, especially the lady. She was taken into the University Building
where she was suitably attended to.
The mare kept on eastward, and at the corner of Sophia street
took to
the north sidewalk, where she slipped and fell, but before anybody could
reach her was up again and off. At the State st. crossing she fell again and
was secured. The result to the beast was some cuts and bruises, but no
lasting injury. The buggy was badly broken up.
