Horse Chases Man Then Drops Dead Did you ever come home along about ten o'clock at night, walk in- to your place quietly, and then be chased about your own premises by a horse? Well, that's the exper- ience of a resident of Mount Joy last week. Samuel H. Miller, local superin- tendent of P. P. & L., came home, left Mrs. Miller out at the house and then drove the car around to the garage. When he alighted from his car, much to his surprise, there was an ugly looking, mean dispositioned horse. The animal lost no time in going after Mr. Miller, with its ears back and mouth open. Samuel beat a hasty retreat and as the horse neared the fence, it suddenly reared and fell dead on Miller’s vegetable bed. Mr. Miller drew a sigh of relief and upon investigating found that it was his neighbor, “Henny” Gar- ber’s old horse. The animal, a faith- ful steed for many years, had had the colic. Amos L.
