    3. HBH 1892 Oct 11 DENHOLM accident A lad named DENHOLM (son of Mr DENHOLM, PORT AHURIRI), met with a somewhat serious accident yesterday evening. He was riding a horse at the Spit, when the animal bolted with him in the direction of the town. The lad held on till HANNAH'S corner was reached, when the horse, in suddenly slewing to void collision with the posts threw him violently on to the pavement. Mr HOOPER, the well known theatrical agent, picked the boy up and carried him into Mr OWEN'S shop where he was examined. It was found that he was suffering from shock, but that no bones ere broken. He was subsequently placed in a cab and sent home. The horse was no stopped, and has probably found its way towards the Shamrock.
