Raftsman's Journal. (Clearfield, Pa.) March 10, 1858
Mr. Joseph Alexander, of Monongahela city, when returning from Washington last week
in his sleigh, was passing another sleigh, when his horse became frightened, and ran
off at a fearful rate. He ran about a mile and one half, and, when at full speed,
ran over Geo. Fleming and his wife, and Mr. Roberts, who were walking along
the road. They were all knocked down in the twinkling of an eye, the horse not
slackening his furious career in the least, but jumped clear of them, dragging the
sleigh over their persons. They were severely, but not dangerously hurt.
