Travellers along Belvidere road, just east cf Hainesville, Lake County, witnessed a most unusual accident last Friday in which ten horses were running awoy, a hayrack was tossed into the air by an automobile and the driver of one of the teams pinned under the rack. The accident occurred on the bend at Lew Hendee's place. Clifford Shanks was driving a tank wagon to which Pas* lift four horses were hitched, just ahfcad of him his father, F. E. Shanks, was driving a team of four horses hitched to a hay rack and still further ahead, another son, Lester Shanks, was riding one of a team of two mules and leading four horses. They were returning from a grading job. A man driving a speed wagon for the Nclscn Transfer Co. ot Dixon struck the rear end of the hay rack, tipping it over, throwing the older Shanks between the team which ran away. The collision caused the reach of the wagon to bepome oroken and the horses galloped down the road the front gears swaying behind them like a chariot. The father was pinned under the hay rack, but was only badly bruised and cut. When Lester, who was leading the caravan leaped from his mount, as the horses became unmanageable the two four horse teams and the span of mules thundered down the road at break neck speed and automobilists and others in their paths took to the ditch like so many rats, fearing they would be trampled under the runaway's hoofs. The driver of the truck, put up $100 to cover the amount of damages to Shank's hay rack and patch him up. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO Taken from the Files of Oct. 21, 1937 John J.
