Run Over by Horse, 
Grace Merrill, the little seven-year- 
old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred J. 
Merrill, was run over Tuesday after- 
noon on Bridge street, Manchester, 
by a horse and wagon owned by the 
New England Telephone Company. 
That she escaped without serious in- 
jury is almost miraculous. As it was, 
she received only slight bruises. 
The little child was playing with 
other children in front of the Merrill 
residence, when she ran into the 
street. She did not see the horse 
approaching, and before the driver 
could bring the wagon toa stop the 
child was struck down by the horse 
and both wheels passed over her 
body. 
The carriage had rubber tires, how- 
ever, and it was due to this fact, ina 
large measure, the child was not seri- 
ously injured. Her bruises were not 
such as to cause alarm. Dr. Blaisdell 
attended her.
