Chandler, about six miles north of town, which terminated in the death of Mr. Frank Pearce, an aged and well-to-do farmer residing in that vicinity. From the facts we could gather it appears that Mr. Pearce and a young man named Winner had been engaging in sporting two fast horses in the lane near Mr. Chandler's residence, and while giving the animals a little rest Mr. Pearce, in attempting to move the seat of his vehicle, fell to the ground and the sudden jerk caused the horse to back over his body. Parties present ran to his assistance immediately, but he expired instantly after his fall. The exact cause of his death is not known. Mr. Pearce has always been a great horse fancier, and was well known in the sporting fraternity throughout this section of the country. He has been a resident of this vicinity in which he resided ! for 41 years past and enjoyed an enviable reputation in this neighborhood. He was also well known here, and his sudden and untimely death will be deeply regretted by many personal friends in this city."
