Automobile Scared A Horse (Defiance Daily Crescent 18 August 1899)















    He Damaged The Buggy and Frighted the             Occupants


    A smash-up occurred about 3:30 Thursday on the North Side. 
    Mrs. J.H. Metz, William Schmaltz and Mrs. C. W. Kerns were in a rig in that locality driving to East Defiance. An automobile came by and scared the horse. The animal began to jump around and broke the harness and the shafts off the buggy.
    The horse was quieted before he could do any further damage, and the rig taken to Dickman's wagon shop for repairs. The ladies escaped unhurt, although they were badly frightened.
