which a mule was attached in front

long flight was finally stopped. The
driver was thrown from the buggy on
Broad street, and was quite badly
bruised, but the sympathy extended
to him in his trouble was scant be

which threw him from his buggy
also threw out some liquor which
smashed on striking the hard heart
