COMBE

ACCIDENT. - An accident which might have ter-
minated seriously happened near Mr. Philip Davis'
farm on Monday afternoon to a nursey cart, which
was being driven from Mr. Chaundy's Wootton
Downs' farm to Combe. The occupants consisted
of a groom, who was driving, and two nurses, with
Mr. Chaundy's two children. They met a cart
laden with heavy stones nearly opposite Mr. Davis'
farm, and according to the groom's statement, when
he pulled out to pass this cart, the horse he was
driving swerved, the result being that the convey-
ances collided, and the wheel of the nursey cart
got locked with the wheel of the other cart,
causing the nurse who was holding one of the child-
ren to be pitched out, together with the groom.
They fortunately escaped with a severe shaking and
a few scratches. The horse was trotting sharply at
the time and the collision caused the hooks to which
the traces were attached to draw out of the nursery
cart, which let the horse loose, and he galloped on
in the direction of the village, but was fortunately
stopped without doing or receiving any injury.
Assistance was rendered by Mr. Davis, who kindly
lent a trap for their return home, the nursery cart
having a spring broken and the front part badly
damaged.
