DRAGGED UNDER A WAGON

Wm. Haller Hurt in a Runaway Accident – – Other Mishaps

This noon, Wm. Haller, an East Lewis street butcher, was thrown from his wagon in a runaway accident at the corner of Jefferson and Hanna streets. He was dragged beneath the front wheels for a block, but fortunately escaped with a few painful bruises. The horse was stopped before much damage was done. The same horse ran away a few days ago and Mr. Haller’s face was badly cut.
