This is Not the First Time Hams Has Skipped to New Scenes When Having Driven a Team Into Trouble. Billy Harris, tbe chap who drove Burns' livery team to Quay Camp on night of November 7 and skipped out when team tumbled into an old coal mine, has not been found yet, although his father, Al. Harris, of Brockway vllle, and others have been searching and Inquiring for him .ever since his disappearance. It was first thought that something awful had happened to Bill, but we don't think there is any occasion for alarm. This is the great est sensation Billy has ever Bprung on the newspapers and public and no doubt he has been enjoying it. His friends will likely hear from blm when he is sure the excitement of his sudden and mysterious disappearance has blown away. The following clipping from the DuBois Express of 13th Inst, shows that Billy has driven Into trouble be fore and then ran away: "It seems that this is not the first time Harris bas driven "off the right road and betook himself to new scenes without stopping to Investigate. A couple of years ago he was employed as driver by a DuBois livery firm. On adark nlgbt he was driving a hack in which were two couples bound for a dance at the fair ground. Harris mistook the road near the turning off place and drove the outfit into the creek which was at the time well filled with-water. When he discovered that something was wrong he jumped oil the seat and ran away leaving the occupants to wade to dry land as best they co-d." Death Fiom Exposure.
