We come with more sad news: By some means the little 12 year old brother of Mrs. John Henry got his arm fastened in the rope while leading a horse to water and the horse ran away and ran about a half mile with the boy dragging to him. Finally the horse ran into Mr. Oldham’s lot; as he went in the gate, the boy struck a post and broke the rope. Burial at the Nocona Cemetery Friday. We are in sympathy with the sister and brother.
