H. H. Taylor, a brother of Mrs. Geo. Young of this city, was a killed in a 
runaway yesterday at his home; one mile south of Douglass. He was hauling feed 
to his sheep and in going down a declivity braced himself by placing his foot 
against a board on the end of the rack. The board broke, letting him fall down 
upon the backs of the mule team which he was driving. They ran away the wagon 
wheels passing diagonally across his shoulder and breast. He was killed 
instantly. A man who witnessed the accident reached Taylor within three minutes 
but he was already dead. The news reached Sheriff Young when he and his wife 
were at the Methodist Church to attend the funeral of Dick Giltenbacher. He did 
not tell Mrs. Young of her brother’s death until they were nearly home. When 
informed of it she fainted, but recovered sufficiently to go to Douglass with 
Mr. Young last evening. Mr. Taylor was 35 years of age and unmarried. The 
funeral occurred at the Cumberland Presbyterian church at Douglass this 
afternoon at 3:00 o’clock.
