S. Albert Shaw was struck by an automobile this morning early while driving or leading his cow to pasture. One auto tried to pass another, and, regardless of any rights of man or beast, struck Mr. Shaw and threw him over 20 feet. The cow was injured very badly and may have to be killed. Mr. Shaw is in bed. It is thought that no bones are broken, but the doctors cannot yet tell how seriously he is injured. Much sympathy is felt for the family as Mrs. Shaw is quite ill and can not well bear this shock. Can not something be done to stop this reckless, careless driving? It is scarcely safe for anyone to cross the street. Horses are supposed to have no rights to travel our roads. Cannot there be some more stringent regulations regarding the settled parts of the town?
