UPSET AND RUNAWAY
On Sunday night as Mr. J. H. Bushong was driving through Lititz his horse took fright at some snow piled up in the street, and running off, upset the sleigh, threw Mr. Bushong out and dragged him for some distance. Finally Mr. Bushong lost his hold of the lines and the horse with sleight attached, ran at full speed towards Lancaster and nothing has been heard since of either horse or sleigh. In our advertising department will be found a description of the team and a reward offered for its recover.
