A horse hitched to a delivery wagon in the alley near Main and Gayoso ran away yesterday. In his mad race he leaped over a lumber pile thereby ending all connection between himself and the vehicle he was pulling. He ran for several more blocks and then apparently discovered that he had left the wagon behind, he turned, walked back to it, waited to be hitched again and then calmly went off gentle as a kitten.

Reading old news like that is really fun! I'm sure it wasn't meant as fun back then, but compared to today's articles I like reading the old stuff.
Have a great 4th!

What a funny horse. Guess it was no fun leaping all over if he couldn't knock the wagon over while doing it. LOL Crazy stuff.
Love this story! Thanks for sharing it.
