Mr. and Mrs. William MacKay have returned from a trip to New York. Albert J. Smythe, of Wadley & Smythe, had an exciting experience a few days ago. A horse attached to a delivery wagon belonging to the firm ran wild on Broadway. Mr. Smythe and another man started in pursuit in an automobile. As the machine was pass- ing the horse Mr. Smythe stepped out to seize the animal, but on missing his footing he was hurled heavily to the ground. The wheels of the auto passed over his left leg and the wagon then struck the prostrate man. Mr. Smythe, although badly shaken up and bruised, escaped with no broken bones. The horse was stopped a short distance from where Mr. Smythe fell. W. H. M. OYSTER BAY, N. Y.
